Connect Texas to National Grid: Urgent Action Needed for Reliable Energy Supply

The recurring power conservation requests by ERCOT, due to factors such as cold weather and low wind conditions, underscore the need for a more resilient and diversified energy system. ERCOT's prediction of record-breaking demand exceeding 85,000 megawatts, with the potential for emergency operations, highlights the urgency of connecting Texas to the national grid and bolstering sustainable energy production. The current isolated and limited system, maintained by the state's leadership, prioritizes political interests over the well-being of residents. It is imperative to shift this focus and take immediate steps to integrate Texas into the national grid and expand sustainable energy production, thereby reducing the frequency of conservation requests and enhancing the reliability of the power supply.
