Didn't use cold insulation because when in use, the heat generated is way more than enough to keep them from freezing.ERCOT planned on 67GW from natural gas/coal, but could only get 43GW of it online. We didn’t run out of natural gas, but we ran out of the ability to get natural gas. Pipelines in Texas don’t use cold insulation —so things were freezing
No. When in use, the heat generated is well more than enought to keep them from freezing. No use = freezeNo. They froze because they weren't designed for sustained cold.
I am NOT agreeing with you.You're agreeing with me. They couldn't use the gas. Thats what the government and power companies actually said.
It also explains why most places had no natural gas supply either.
The Railroad Commission blamed power producers for gas supply issues, even though its chair Christi Craddick was aware of gas supply problems prior to the outages. Cold weather disrupted 22 gas processing plants two days before blackouts began.[22]
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission is investigating anomalies in the natural gas market, where companies may have illegally manipulated prices. Intrastate pipelines are not required to report their tariffs like interstate pipelines, making it harder to investigate. FERC was unable to say if there was price gouging.[22] Texas attorney general Ken Paxton has not announced investigations into energy prices.[22]

How Texas’ Power Generation Failed During the Storm, in Charts (Published 2021)
All energy sources fell short, but natural gas power broke down the most.www.nytimes.com
Simple fix.Having said that, I would be outrageously happy if the issues have been addressed.
Except in the real world they froze and power plants shut down. They didn't winterize the windmills either.Didn't use cold insulation because when in use, the heat generated is way more than enough to keep them from freezing.
I so sick of every cocksucking one of you getting the shit wrong.
No wing shit = No Failure
PERIOD
Who's fault is that?Except in the real world they froze and power plants shut down. They didn't winterize the windmills either.
Because they are leeches on the US.
Abbott and the GOP who run Texas. They failed across the board.Who's fault is that?
Wind SUCKS. The wind assholes should be executed for that shit.
Natural gas does not freeze when it's in use.
I think we're done here. I have pissed all over your faces and you're still coming back for more.
Actually, the power grid is run by a private entity called ERCOT. The storm was a once in 100 year storm.Abbott and the GOP who run Texas. They failed across the board.
Look at you, pissing into the wind like that........
Yet all ERCOT board members resigned.Abbott and the GOP who run Texas. They failed across the board.
Look at you, pissing into the wind like that........
What happens in Texas, stays in Texas. That means people too. Texans, stay in Texas! For the good of the country.After having nearly 50 days in a row of triple digit weather, I think it's safe to say that there's nothing wrong with the Texas power grid.
...and Texas will not be going "blue" anytime soon.
TBoone is deadYou'll have to talk to TBoone Pickens about that.
They did supplement it.
They've not been weatherized and we have not been connected to the national grid. But we have a new director getting paid $4mm a year. ok.
Fuck that. We WILL pollute your state every summer, and there's nothing you can do but cry into your hippie bong. Texas owns Colorado.What happens in Texas, stays in Texas. That means people too. Texans, stay in Texas! For the good of the country.
Not anymore. Zero tolerance on asshats! Even the ten-gallon variety.Fuck that. We WILL pollute your state every summer, and there's nothing you can do but cry into your hippie bong. Texas owns Colorado.
Still a pipe dream, but that would solve most energy problems.Fusion baby!
7 Times Hotter Than Sun, Nuclear Fusion Reactor Reaches 100 Million Degrees Celsius In South Korea

Fuck 10 gallons. I'm sporting a 20.Not anymore. Zero tolerance on asshats! Even the ten-gallon variety.
