The Electric Reliability Council of Texas wants retired power plants to come back online in the coming months.
The control room at the Electric Reliability Council of Texas, which manages the state's electric grid and power flow.
So that’s obviously alarming, but also, I think not surprising, right. I mean, we’ve talked before and I’ve been saying this for a while – of course, I’m not the only one; a lot of people have been saying it – that the grid is, in fact, not fixed. And the risk of outages is elevated and too high. And this report puts, you know, kind of a finer point on that.
Yeah, I mean, I feel like this whole situation reaches a certain level of absurdity. What they’re doing is they put out an RFP; that’s a request for proposals. They want owners of power plants that have retired to put in a proposal for what it would take to bring them back. And of course, we still have not adequately addressed the weatherization and winterization of natural gas supply, which is outside ERCOT’s control, but certainly not outside of state leaders’ control.
