It's not only the windmills that were not winterized, it the water pumps that are needed for natural gas an oil extration along with the water pumps that are needed to operate a nuclear reactor that are not winterized. In life you're supposed to prepare for the worst and hope for the best, in Texas it's apparent they prepared for the least and probably prayed for the best.

racer254 3,822 Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 (edited) ERCOT has three ties to Mexico and — as an outcome of the “Midnight Connection” battle — it also has two ties to the eastern U.S. grid, though they do not trigger federal regulation for ERCOT. All can move power commercially as well as be used in emergencies, according to ERCOT spokeswoman Dottie Roark. Edited February 17, 2021 by racer254 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gold Member BOHICA 2,765 Posted February 17, 2021 Gold Member Share Posted February 17, 2021 20% of the US refining capacity is shut down. It’s fine though cause people need to start paying the true cost for gas the oil companies are going broke and would go under if prices didn’t go up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
