TEXAS ORDERED by Dept of Energy - NOT MAKE MORE POWER!

They would not need to exceed emission limits if the gas wells didn't freeze up shutting down a bunch of plants requiring what generation is left to run balls to the wall.

Every power plant in the country has emission limits and things worked just fine for the past 51 years since the first iteration of the clean air act.

It's really simple... engineers didn't think it would get this cold for this long, and they were wrong. It happens from time to time.

A month ago if your power company said they needed to raise your rates by 20% to freezeproof everything you would have made angry threads about that.

The Department of Energy has no Constitutional authority over States' energy production.

90% of humanity must be wiped out to save the planet. That's the message they are putting out now that they don't need as many slaves.

Only 500,000 slaves will be needed for the 4th Industrial Revolution, only slaves that do not question the New Order.

You will own nothing, and you will be happy slaves. Or unhappy in gulag.

So, why would Texas listen to them now? They have ignored the Feds for years who were warning them that their grid was unreliable.

B. To minimize adverse environmental impacts, this Order limits operation of dispatched units to the times and within the parameters determined by ERCOT for reliability purposes. Consistent with good utility practice, ERCOT shall exhaust all reasonably and practically available resources, including available imports, demand response, and identified behind-the-meter generation resources selected to minimize an increase in emissions, to the extent that such resources provide support to maintain grid reliability, prior to dispatching the Specified Resources. ERCOT shall provide a daily notification to the Department reporting each generating unit that has been Designated to use the allowance and operated in reliance on the allowances contained in this Order.
