According to my Google foo, around 1000 people per day have been moving to Texas in the last three years alone. Put anywhere between a half million to three quarters of a million additional people on the power grid in a three year span and the grid is bound to have issues.

Also, really like how the majority of the comments sound like Reddit /r/politics's far left, adult man child, ignorant insights.

are you implying there’s been zero construction on the grid to increase supply _for three years?_

  • There's been lots of construction, but growth in demand is 7x higher than previous years. It takes time to build and connect plants.
