I don't think they are being totally transparent with their graphs.
Power outages reported across the Houston area following excessive heat warning
Thousands of residents across the Houston area are experiencing power outages as temperatures remained in the 100s Sunday night.

"An immediate answer as to why so many people were without power remains unknown, however, it is believed to be tied to storms moving through along with the excessive heat warning issued for the Houston area."
probably doing blackouts on a small scale to see how capable they are

Rolling blackouts are nothing new or out of the ordinary. Maybe in Texas now that have tricked more people into moving there but IIRC, we had them in Trenton and other areas in the northeast I lived during high demand. The way to avoid is was for everyone to cut their power usage but in Texas, you can't tell anyone what to do.
There is nothing wrong with older people in government. They aren't ditch diggers and in that sort of position, experience counts. The new blood has proven themselves to be pretty stupid and more concerned with their popularity than they are with governing. I could only imagine that clown show if it were all new blood.

Might be a problem pushing electric cars with no clear plan to improve the grid and power generation capacity?
Part of the problem here in TX is there isn't much wind when it's extremely hot, no wind = all those green energy windmills are useless when they're needed most

It has nothing to do with electric cars. Is there anything in your life that isn't rooted in some sort of bullshit? You sound like you survived 3 years by eating potatoes grown in Chernobyl.

No, your are making things up out of thin air. Coming on here saying that someone is warning you about rolling blackouts. No one is saying that. Tons of people on these forums are from TX and Houston, so don't be an idiot.I don't think they are being totally transparent with their graphs.

This was normal for us for the longest time. Power would go out for an hour at a time more than once a day. Most of the generating power was built by the Navy, they had names for each unit and we had daily reports of their health and happiness. Most everyone who could afford it had a generator at home & work. Part of it was typhoons smashing the grid (stll on poles) every few months. Once Gov Guam got a few more plants built and some of the older ones upgraded the rolling blackouts eased up and stopped for the most part. We are heading back into trouble with demands for power outpacing new plants. Nothing to do with electric cars - think it is social networking that is stressing the system - all kinds of gear being used, charged, or cooled.

Looks like a bot, too random!
reading ol threads again, youre was right in 2022, what you said is still actual in 2025. I can say that this eco energy thing is working, but not in big hyped niches. Green Energy Canada mining company, some usa mining companies are using new technologies and green energy, but because of false advertisement and media people are thinking wrong things about green energy concept.

This post is 3 years old and a lot has changed for electric cars, now it’s electric bikes and scooters everywhere and gas prices dropping, plus car manufacturers pulling back on making EV cars and going back to pushing the gas engine cars and trucks. I do wonder if Space X will make an battery powered rocket.
