Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has walked back a pledge that he would “keep the lights on” this winter no matter what. “No one can guarantee that there won’t be any” outages caused by demand on the power grid, Abbott said Tuesday.
— Texas Gov. Greg Abbott Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has walked back a pledge from recent months that he would “keep the lights on” this winter no matter what, a sentiment meant to build confidence in the state’s uniquely structured independent power grid about a year after an ice storm cut power to millions of residents with deadly consequences.
The National Weather Service says the system would not be as bad this time for Texas, at least based on current forecasts. No large-scale power outages were reported early Wednesday in Texas, according to poweroutage.us. The state-run utility last month said all of its “electricity-generation units” had passed tougher inspections for this winter. iframe.twitter-tweet { width: 100% !important; } A report late last year from the North American Electric Reliability Corp.
