Update (2149ET): Oncor Electric Delivery, Texas’ largest transmission and electric distribution utility, warns customers to “be prepared for additional outages and stay weather aware due to an active Winter Storm Warning.”
People are freezing in their own homes.
My sister, who lives in Port Lavaca, TX, hasn’t had electricity since 1am Monday. There is nothing “rolling” about that. Her electric provider claims they are awaiting permission from @ERCOT_ISO – please explain. Her house is 37 degrees. https://t.co/f1zKsnmplspic.twitter.com/sGkqexucW0
Update (2139 ET): The cold snap in Texas has forced the shutdown of “refineries, oil wells, and meat plants, disrupted shipments of soybeans and corn, and is still leaving more than 3 million customers without electricity could continue to keep parts of Texas in the dark for several days,” according to Bloomberg.
With more than 3 million customers without power, there is no way ERCOT will restore power tonight. It could be a couple of days before full power is restored.
Bloomberg also said fuel storages are developing in the western half of the state.
* * *
Update (2048 ET): This certainly won’t sit well with Texans after experiencing one of the worst power grid collapses in the state’s history.
* * *
Update (1929 ET): Gov. Greg Abbott told ABC13 Houston that ERCOT had provided him with zero answers about the ongoing power grid collapse across Texas.
ABC13’s Gina Gaston asked Abbott if ERCOT leadership should resign. He immediately responded with “yes.”
The local media outlet also said residents should prepare for the next round of wintery weather, expected to hit the state on Tuesday night.
Winter weather watches and warnings have been posted for most of the state.
As evening sets in Texas, power prices in Austin are exploding higher. In the last 145 minutes, prices have jumped 1,346% to $1,600 per MWh.
More than 3 million customers remain without power in Texas.
Stay warm.

Update (1818 ET): CenterPoint Energy, the utility that delivers electricity to Houston-area homes and distributes natural gas, provided an update on the ongoing grid chaos in Texas with some bad news Tuesday evening.
CenterPoint said power shortages could last “several more days” and warned customers “to take precautions for their personal safety.”

KUT Austin’s Claire McInerny has so far summed up the ERCOT presser as the”worst” ever media briefing she “has ever been a part of.”
this is THE WORSE media briefing I have ever been a part of.
the @ERCOT_ISO communications person is reading questions that people are texting her? which doesn't give everyone an opportunity to submit a question. this is INSANITY. local people can't ask questions
Update (1415 ET): Rolling blackouts and power outages have hit 15 states on Tuesday as a polar vortex dumps Arctic air into much of the country.
According to PowerOutage.US, 15 states are experiencing rolling blackouts or outages because of extreme weather. Most of the outages are seen in Texas, with over 4 million customers without power (as of this update).
The polar vortex will continue pouring frigid air into much of the country through this week. Temperature anomalies are well below normal, creating major power-grid chaos.
The disruption has spilled over into Mexico, where the US has curbed natural gas exports, resulting in power stations grinding to a halt.
OilPrice.com expands more on the chaos unfolding across Mexico’s northern power grid.
The plummeting natural gas exports from the United States to Mexico amid an Arctic cold spell in the country that has led to a gas demand surge is causing blackouts in northern Mexico, with some 4.77 million households and businesses left without power on Monday.
Argus noted that most of the natural gas Mexico receives from the United States comes from the Permian, where the production of both oil and gas has been affected by the cold weather that has caused power outages across Texas.
Oil wells are being shut down, and so are refineries along the Gulf Coast, Reuters reported earlier today, adding oil and gas pipeline operations were also disrupted by the weather.
The blackouts, Bloomberg reports, will strengthen the government’s argument that Mexico needs to be less dependent on energy imports, with President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador spearheading the drive to reduce this dependency. Obrador wants to boost Mexico’s domestic oil and gas production to tackle the problem, but this has proved challenging without the participation of private energy companies as the president seeks to fortify the dominant status of state energy major Pemex.
* * *
Update (1313 ET): Gov. Greg Abbott has requested LNG exporter Freeport to limit gas intake as domestic supplies are low due to frozen wellheads.
Winter blast in plains expected to last through next weekend. Supply is literally frozen. Midcontinent NG could hit GME^batshit levels https://t.co/pFvSgwovxz
The lack of gas flowing to powerplants plus unprecedented demand for power has resulted in the state’s highest-ever electricity rates. Power demand has surpassed supply leading to massive blackouts for the last couple of days. The goal now is to get power generation back online.
* * *
Update (1256 ET): Following the power grid collapse in Texas, Gov. Greg Abbott released a statement Tuesday that “declared the reform” of ERCOT in the new legislative session. Abbott will pressure lawmakers to investigate ERCOT’s failures and make sure rolling blackouts never happen again.
“The Electric Reliability Council of Texas has been anything but reliable over the past 48 hours,” said Abbott. “Far too many Texans are without power and heat for their homes as our state faces freezing temperatures and severe winter weather. This is unacceptable. Reviewing the preparations and decisions by ERCOT is an emergency item so we can get a full picture of what caused this problem and find long-term solutions. I thank my partners in the House and Senate for acting quickly on this challenge, and I will work with them to enhance Texas’ electric grid and ensure that our state never experiences power outages like this again.”
Here’s the full text:

Update (1234 ET): ERCOT officials have promised to restore some power generation today, but according to PowerOutage.US, around 1221 ET, there are more than 4.423 million customers without electricity in the state. That’s up 100k since 0900 ET.
Bloomberg’s Javier Blas tweets out he “doesn’t have good news” concerning the power grid collapse in the state.
“The load on the ERCOT grid is right now nearly the lowest it has been since the blackouts started more than 36 hours ago. Load climbed a bit earlier (see chart, note GMT hours), but since has fallen, which indicates blackouts have spread again.”
Source: Bloomberg
Meanwhile, some people without electricity are using outdoor propane heaters to heat their homes.
Update (1208 ET): There are three major power grids in the Lower 48 states: the Eastern Interconnection, the Western Interconnection — and Texas Interconnection.
The Texas grid is called ERCOT (Electric Reliability Council of Texas). It covers 90% of the state’s electric load except for El Paso and the upper Panhandle, and East Texas.
Local utilities under ERCOT have pledged not to sell their power to out-of-state customers. Texas grid’s independence dates back to World War II.
While there’s little pressure to integrate ERCOT into the national grid, that could all change with the latest wave of blackouts across the Lone Star State.
* * *
Update (1003 ET): Some Texans have been living in their cars to stay warm as rolling blackouts have left millions without power.
CBS DFW spoke with at least one person who’s been sitting in his car since Sunday to get warm.
Collin County resident Clint Cash has had no power in North Texas for a couple of days. He said his house went dark Sunday, which was when he decided to bundle up and sit in his parked car with the heater on full blast.
Isha Elhence, a Dallas resident who lost power around 2 a.m. Monday, was quoted by Bloomberg as saying, “We lost power around 2 a.m. Monday. It was only supposed to be for one to two hours, which seemed manageable… Now it’s kind of indefinite with no updates, so we’re unsure of what we’re supposed to be doing.”
“This is extremely dangerous,” said Eric Berger, a forecaster with Houston’s Space City Weather.
As the rolling blackouts increased across Texas, we noted Monday evening, internet searches for firewood exploded across the state.
Internet searches for “where to buy firewood” erupted on Monday.
Texas’ grid collapse has transformed the state into a third world country.
* * *
Update (0950 ET): With temperatures near zero this morning, GM decided to idle its massive Arlington Assembly plant due to “weather problems” for the second day. The facility sits on about 250 acres and employs approximately 5,480 people.
There are no further updates on when the facility will reopen. Temperatures are expected to stay frigid until the end of the week.
* * *
Update (0915 ET): Oncor Electric Delivery, Texas’ largest transmission and electric distribution utility, tweeted:
“Due to ongoing record-low temps and generation, @ERCOT_ISO has continued to direct Oncor & utilities across TX to drop power load through maintained controlled outages. These controlled outages are occurring across the state and our entire service territory.”
Oncor also tweeted:
“At this time, @ERCOT_ISO is unable to predict when grid conditions will stabilize. All customers are urged to be prepared for cont’ extended outages. Please also prioritize safety. Warming stations are available in many areas- check online or call 211 for more.”
Temperatures across Texas this morning are absolutely frigid.
At the moment, PowerOutage.US shows 4.307 million customers in Texas are without power.
* * *
Update (0854 ET): Texas power grid operator ERCOT, which represents 90% of the state’s electric load, tweeted Tuesday morning that “generators to return, renewable output to increase = increased customer restoration.”
Bloomberg published a headline that said the grid operator expects all power to be back on Tuesday evening.
“It’s a function of how many generations we are able to get back on line, especially gas and coal,” Dan Woodfin, a senior director for the ERCOT, said in an interview. “It could be as early as early afternoon today. But then it is also possible it could go into the evening hours tonight.”
However, Bloomberg’s Javier Blas said the grid is “still short of at least 18.5 GW.” He said that equates to outages for at least 3 million homes.
ERCOT confirms what I was calculating earlier: the grid is still short of at least 18.5 GW. That's a staggering number, which equals probably to ~3 million homes, at the very least. This is ~36 hours into the rolling blackouts | #texaspoweroutagehttps://t.co/gnvMCNOuOB
Update ( 0832 ET): The Southwest Power Pool (SSP), which manages the electric grid and wholesale power market for the central US, including Kansas, Oklahoma, portions of New Mexico, Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana, Missouri, Minnesota, Iowa, Wyoming, and Nebraska, said Tuesday morning that blackouts would continue for a second day.
Here’s what blackouts in Houston looked like overnight.
Why are the ‘poor’ suburban areas dark while downtown is all lit up?
* * *
Four million Texans are without power Tuesday morning after a polar vortex split poured Arctic air into the region, collapsing the state’s power grid, forcing grid operators to impose rolling blackouts because of higher power demand.
The PowerOutage.us website, which tracks power outages, said four million Texas customers were experiencing outages at 0630 ET Tuesday.
Houston Police Chief Art Acevedo tweeted that a weather-related death was reported Monday night. He said exposure to “extremely low temperatures” was the cause of death.
Very sad about the death of a male subject in our city. Please seek shelter tonight. Temperature is already down to 20 degrees with windchill of 6 degrees. pic.twitter.com/5NSu8Wa155
Acevedo tweeted, “Please pray for our elderly and vulnerable populations tonight. With the 2nd consecutive night of massive power outages and frigid cold, many lives are at risk. State of Texas leaders must do better, lives depend on it.”
Refinitiv data shows Texas continues to deal with Arctic air, now stretching for the fifth day.
Below-average Texas temperatures will likely clear out by the end of the weekend.
ERCOT wholesale electricity prices topped the grid’s price cap of $9,000 per megawatt-hour several times in the overnight session. Reminding readers, ERCOT prices are usually around $25/MWh.
Meanwhile, rolling blackouts have set off a chain reaction of problems. RT News reports “some water treatment plants and cell phone networks” are offline.
Several metro areas across central Texas warned of water issues.
Due to a prolonged power outage at the water treatment plant, Pflugerville is under a boil water notice. We are working with Oncor to restore power, but until further notice, all city water customers must boil their water prior to consumption. (1/3) pic.twitter.com/alhpeSfyaN
Governor Greg Abbott wrote on Twitter that “Texas power grid has not been compromised.” However, millions of Texans are unhappy with his response to the grid crisis that has sparked chaos across the state. He deployed National Guard troops to assist the state in relief efforts.
Living in Texas sounds like a third-world country. Here’s a tweet from Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins:
“The additional shed coupled with increased demand will likely increase blackout numbers and times. We should discuss how Texas let this happen. I understand your anger. I’m angry too. But tonight-right now- is about human and animal survival. Check on and help one another!”
President Joe Biden declared an emergency on Monday for the Lone Star State, where temperatures in some areas hovered near zero.
The freeze also took a toll on the state’s energy industry, the country’s largest crude refinery shuttered operations on Monday. Over the weekend, natural gas pipelines had restricted flow as wellheads froze.
… and the worst might not be over as a second winter storm could batter the state by midweek.
amerika cannot produce electricity —they couldn’t defeat the Viet-cong or anyone else and now their transsexual military occupies Washington fearing a coup by BLM
Exactly why we told the insolent dumb fks,bugger off,we are not paris nor biden,but a geniune top 3 fossil producer with russia and saudie arabia,how does that harmonise?
Do the math,then lets see how effective the digital freaks are up against a true powerhouse,
of course they will try to convey to some form of stupidity in reproach,but they were told,
now they are shown,next they will try to make what they can as in rarer commodotys,
however that too will fail as the peoples go back to the fundamentals and basics using wood,kerosene,coal,and other more conventional means to keep the basics running,yet anyone who suggests mass genocide on the cards are infact dumber than dumb(period)
This iffy bitty solar and wind technology may be ok for warmer climates within the tropics
however there is no substiture for good old refined fossil be it coal,gas,atomic,hydrogen,
which is completely underestimated in country with much harsher winter conditions ie other europe,canada,usa,russia,significant chunks of land which need more significant solutions,not that dodgy 2050 zero emmisions bullsht concept of usas,which really was only intented for themselfs not other sovereign nations anyway,like how dare try impede!
IF.
IF only the West that is embracing Wind and Solar power, had considered the fact that without wind or sun there is no power from the green power generation
IF only less had been spent on wars that impoverish civilians and enrich the arms manufacturers there could have been a hardened power grid.
Germany re-activated a coal generation plant recently as the wind did not blow, the nuclear power stations were closed and the millions of solar panels were covered in snow:)
IF only the Green Lobby were put in an asylum, we could live our lives without a green ball and chain that is enslaving the world.

Tax cuts.
Building and maintaining infrastructure takes investment … Americans consistently vote to lower taxes. The ‘investment class’ pours $$$$ B / year into politicians who support tax cuts and the propaganda that they use to convince Americans that tax cuts for the rich benefits them.
Instead of using taxes to build infastructure that benefits all Americans they borrow money to fund the largest most expensive security state in history … which primarily benefits US corporations and the “investment class”.
Who benefits from tax cuts? US corporations and their investors.
Who makes makes money off the security state? US corporations and their investors.
Who makes money on funding the USA’s debt? US corporations and investors.
Who is ultimately on the hook for the debt? Ordinary Americans and their great grandchildren …. at least those who don’t earn enough to take advantage of tax havens, hire expensive accountants and tax lawyers or qualify for tax breaks.

The cursed Yankees taste some of that medicine of theirs that they have made people all over the world swallow, in fact they are already starting to hate the Yankees as much as the whole world hates them, I’ve been waiting for these moments for a lifetime.
Sorry folks, its a necessary evil all Americans must suffer.
Do you want to save our planet and humanity from Clima change and plastic bag pollution, or do you only think of your own comfort during winter?
Well, thanks to your Enron Corp and some other underhanded bastards, some years back our state was held hostage by energy companies in an emergency situation and our multi-billion $ state reserve fund was bled into their coffers at insanely jack prices until extinguished in a matter of a couple weeks. This led to a successful recall of a very good governor and the election of Der Gropenfürher, aka Arnold Schwarzenegger, who did us great harm- the fake.
Btw., I grew up in San Antonio and I know Texas politics- Ted Cruz, Tom Delay and several current di*khead reps… YUCK!
I’ll be watching see how your own energy price manipulation effects state coffers and politics…

“amerika cannot produce electricity… ”
…but we can sure as hell knock out electricity! The people of Iraq still don’t have electricity 18 years after the US invaded on fake, lying pretext!
Would this be a SHTF event?
The SHTF when the people get tired of freezing and realise their government is a giant ponzi scheme.
AND do something about their useless government.
hahahahahaha…….and the stupid americans are beiing pushed by british zionism into war with russia and china and iran………………
good luck !
Do you refer to what Great Khan calls the Stoopid Mamtu l?
That would be eu-epp-brussels bud not the commonwealth,brexit remmember that fact!
If only Greg Abbot had listened to Tommy’s green energy climate change logics and advizes and logiks!

Greta Thunderbird would be better served to stop the NATO wars :)
This shit happens in California. That it happened in Texas is damned embarrasing to us.
