Rolling blackouts as Texas heats up
The emergency measure might be repeated today during peak hours

Hundreds of thousands of Texans went without power for brief periods Monday afternoon as unseasonably warm weather and both planned and unplanned power plant outages led officials to call for rolling blackouts.

Shortly after 4 p.m. Monday, officials with the Electricity Reliability Council of Texas, the organization that monitors the power network for about 85 percent of the state, declared an emergency and asked power distributors to turn off about 1,000 megawatts of power.

---snip---
A combination of factors led to the emergency Monday.

April and October are the two so-called "shoulder months," periods of mild weather when power plant operators schedule annual maintenance. A large percentage of the 77,000 megawatt-generating capacity within the ERCOT system can be unavailable at those times.

---snip---
ERCOT would not name the owners of the power plants, but a Texas Public Utility Commission spokesman said the units were owned by CPS Energy in San Antonio and TXU Energy in Dallas. Officials with those companies could not be reached for comment.

There are still too many W stickers here. I see at least one a week, usually 2-3. Apparently most of the wingnuts are concentrated over here. :puke:

Every time I see a W sticker, I want to vomit at the ignorance of the driver (who's usually in a gas-sucking SUV).
