Like what do you all expect him to do? Get out there with a hairdryer and warm up the wind turbines?
Nearly everything you'd expect him to do is handled by local legislators.
So you can be mad at him for promoting green energy and giving cuts to them while traditional power plants suffer, but as long as the trip was pre-planned then take a breath because there are bigger things to worry about.
he created a disaster and then fled when it happened. the least he could do is stay and fight through it like everyone else has to. if it wasn't for him and his corrupt buddies we wouldn't even be in this situation
To say he created it is a little over exaggerated don't you think? I know in Oklahoma, the state legislators gives funds for energy production and cuts for green energy products. It's not all done nationally.
Also, extreme cold has been known to make all kinds of energy production falter. Should they have given less rebates for green energy and focused on how to use the money to increase their energy more efficiently, most definitely, but its a "perfect storm" that has led to this. And when temperatures drop beyond normally operating conditions, anything is likely to go wrong.
every other state is connected to a larger grid so if there's a power surge they can import power. texas has its own grid with just a few outside connections so it has to produce all its own power. this cold is extreme for texas but northern states experience this all the time, it just costs money to winterize power plants. i guess ted is just one of many people who let this happen, but this shouldn't have been allowed to happen. texas freezes every so often and we didn't plan for it because every time the politicians claim it happens very rarely
Funny how California s connected to one of the main grids and still has rolling blackouts EVERY SINGLE SUMMER, unlike Texas.
