Texas is preparing for a deep winter freeze to settle in this week as the state's power grid operator assures the public that it will be able to meet demand.
The Electric Reliability Council of Texas, which manages most of the state’s power grid, says it is closely monitoring weather forecasts and models and"expects sufficient generation to meet forecasted demand and will continue to provide updates."
The power grid operator said it has been working closely with the Public Utility Commission for the past 18 months to implement reforms, increase grid reliability – including weatherization – bring more generation online sooner if needed, and purchase more reserve power. Snow falls on a ground crew working outside a parked plane at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport in Grapevine, Texas, Thursday, Feb. 3, 2022. The historic freeze covered the Lone Star State and left millions without power.
