Texans in Disbelief After Discovering What It Took to Keep Lights On: 'We Have Power, But at What Price?

“I paid $450 for one day,” Griddy customer Akilah Scott-Amos told the Daily Beast. “I was in shock.”

Soon, her bill skyrocketed. The $450 soon turned to a whopping $2,869 sum as Scott-Amos was charged thousands to keep warm and connected."

I don't see the media asking Xiden what's he going to do to help Texas. They would be screaming at Trump by now if he was in office.

the fucker is worthless, why would anyone ask him anything. I bet his secretary can give a hell of a blowjob fwiw.

Is this saying that an individual account holder rate varies based on real-time market conditions? Something is wrong with this reporting.

Griddy charges a $9.99 month membership fee and passes on wholesale energy prices to the member. When energy is cheap, they save, when it goes the other way they pay. They told their members to switch providers last week but most providers aren't taking new customers right now.

We pay 10c a kilowatt on a 2 year contract and it's fixed.

Can't get oak here at all. Pine and fir is free if you care to fetch it yourself.

Topsiders leave negligible prints.

And provide good traction in wet creek-beds.

......and maybe that camo pattern is satellite-proof.

From another on FB
Copied from a White House FB post :
From my Friend MRobinson

TEXAS

Something is not sitting right with me with Texas and it’s not just the weather.

I mean it really bothers me these millions of Texas families are suffering.

I couldn’t sleep actually...

So I woke up this morning, made coffee and got to researching.

I started pulling Biden’s EO’s this morning and I found something buried in the Keystone Piepline EO..... way towards the end of the doc.

It turns out that the same day Biden shut down the Keystone Pipeline, he also lifted the security on our power grid for 90 days (Trump’s EO the year prior secured our power grid by giving China no access.)

Here below is the snippet buried in Biden’s Keystone pipeline EO.

“c) Executive Order 13920 of May 1, 2020 (Securing the United States Bulk-Power System), is hereby suspended for 90 days. The Secretary of Energy and the Director of OMB shall jointly consider whether to recommend that a replacement order be issued.”

Just a small little paragraph tucked away in one of Biden’s EO’s the first day he was in office under the umbrella of “restoring science to tackle the climate crisis”.

So I researched our energy transformers that supply our power grid.

Turns out, we have had zero transformers in this country that were manufactured in China prior to 2009. From 2009 -2019, China has manufactured 200 of our transformers, supplying 60% of our power grid.

Trump’s EO states this snippet, interestingly enough.

May 1, 2020 order, President Trump stated that

“the United States should no longer purchase transformers and other electric grid equipment manufactured in China. He signaled that it is important to end relationships that U.S. utilities have directly with Chinese businesses and multi-national companies manufacturing transformers in China, which are later plugged into the electric grid in the United States.

Chinese power equipment can be embedded with software and hardware that can be remotely accessed, enhancing China’s ability to commit cyberattacks. Because power transformers are huge and weigh between 100 and 400 tons, it is not easy to identify embedded software or hardware. There is also a potential hardware risk since counterfeit items can be easily put into large power transformers.”

You can read Trump’s EO here:

https://www.federalregister.go....v/documents/2020/05/

What prompted Trump’s EO was this prior report right here. The Department of Energy found in this report, that there were :

6 - US power transformer manufacturers

30- Chinese power transformer manufacturers.

You can read the report here:
https://www.energy.gov/sites/p....rod/files/2014/04/f1

Most recent projects were completed in

Houston
Las Vegas
New Jersey

If you lookup “ Electric Panda”.... you will wonder why in the heck this isn’t front page news now with Texas.
Conclusively, Biden, on his first day in office, opened up the American electrical grid to China.
His very first day in office. 3 weeks later, 5 million are without power and struggling to keep their families warm, and many livestock are unable to survive the emergent conditions caused by power outages and limited water.

 

[keef]

Coincidence.

I just want to know how EO & co are gonna pay off their $20,000 electric bills for Feburary

 

[Ensoniq]

I think it’s an economics issue.

You subsidize green energy in the form of solar and wind turbines and traditional energy doesn’t maintain or build added capacity because they are undercut on price.

Then the operator doesn’t winterize (stupid and incompetent because they can charge these costs to consumers)

Then when a once in a lifetime cold spell freezes the NG valves, the turbines, and snow and ice cover the solar panels there’s no reserve capacity to feed the grid

Just my opinion from what I’ve read, I’m no expert on this

This man used his 2021 Ford F-150 to heat his house during Texas winter storm blackout
Phoebe Wall Howard
Fri, February 19, 2021, 9:02 AM


Texans trapped without electricity for days in their homes have suffered without heat or lights or the ability to run refrigerators or stoves despite freezing temperatures.
But Randy Jones, 66, a retired refinery worker from the town of Katy, outside Houston, and the owner of a 2021 Ford F-150 Hybrid piwith Pro Power onboard, generated envy on social media after posting images of how he's using his pickup to power his home and help neighbors during the blackout affecting millions in the Lone Star State.
"We were out from Sunday through Wednesday evening," he said early Thursday. "It's been miserably cold and frustrating to have loss of power for that many days."

Here the mockingbird media is busted red handed re-framing the narrative from "renewables are unreliable and kill people" to "ZOMG climate change must be stopped!".

There's a reason why Germany wants Russian gas even though they are one of the most Green countries in the world

 

[solarion]

Intermittent power is unreliable power. Everyone knows this, yet gumbymint traitors continue to play dumb while their constituents pay the price.

 

[nowon]

Only an idiot would say lack of wind or snow covering has no impact on renewable power

 

[Voodoo]

I can't believe that their power bills are essentially floating rates? How is that possible. You didn't contract for power for at least a month at a time? There is no way I would be paying for the managers and government complete incompetence and insistence on Renewable power. How many tax credits or money was poured into making the grid less reliable.

[the_shootist]

I don't have a problem with his message but his method of delivery leaves something to be desired. If you go back and read what he said he was just being honest and pointing out that people really in need should be helped by the government first. Apparently not every one of his constituents shares the opinion of the good mayor They all want their gibs first whether they could wait a little longer or actually need them or not. The problem this country faces is lots of people can't handle the truth.

And murders, you can always get a new car. But rent is so cheap I moved back into the city and have a great view from the 21st floor.

House was fine in Houston this week with no heat for 36 hours. It got down to 48 degrees inside. Sent wife to motel as she is on chemo for one of her 2 cancer ailments. Had the plan to hook up a basic generator to the furnace if necessary and a plan to shut down the water supply at the street but neither program was warranted.

set your rational thinking out on the floor, there, kick it away, kick it one more time and get back to your starting positions...

this 'system' was designed To Fail, it was not designed to not function, it was designed as a complete system, and that system was not designed to function beyond it's sales date...it was designed to Fail, to require the most inefficient, cost attached form of utility ever produced...that;s why we;ve never had it before, 'they know all about it and how to design it to be cost prohibitive on the 'back end'...
