It’s hotter than hell in Texas, right this minute!Nostradamus'omh » 30 Jun 2023, 4:58 pm » wrote: ↑ Realities are evolving that has happened or happening.

Go ahead and try to escape that with traditional space time relativity theories.
It’s too late to add to the grid, and Texas won’t allow utilities to buy power from other states.
But so far, Texas is meeting demand:
—-June 30 (Reuters) - The Texas power grid comfortably met record demand during this week's heat wave with abundant power supply from wind and solar plants, data from the grid operator showed.
The Texas grid is a focus in the United States whenever it is tested by extreme weather after a catastrophic failure in February 2021 during freezing temperatures left millions of Texans without power, water and heat for days during a deadly storm.
Texas has limited connection to grids in other states, so is unable to meet spikes in demand with imported power.
This week, grid operator the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) had little trouble meeting demand even as consumption for air conditioning rose temperatures rose as high as 102 degrees Fahrenheit (38.9 degrees Celsius) in the Fort Worth/Dallas area, according to the U.S. National Weather Service.—-
Texas is number one in solar and number two in wind generation.
There’s actually less wind during the heat wave than normal, but the sun shines enough to meet the extra demand.
Think of all those Texans boycotting Bush Light and afraid of swarms of immigrants, groomers, and pedophiles, and other such things that go bump in the night, blissfully unaware of all those solar and wind farms keeping them cool.
