The question on everyone's mind is when will this heat go away? The short answer is...not any time soon.
In fact, it is going to get worse this weekend before it gets better. #txwx

The Texas power grid has not been compromised.
The ability of some companies that generate the power has been frozen.
This includes the natural gas & coal generators.
They are working to get generation back on line.
ERCOT & PUC are prioritizing residential consumers.

I have gathered information all day from ERCOT & the Public Utilities Comm. & will provide a detailed update shortly. Many power generation companies facilities froze overnight and shut down their ability to generate power. They are working to get power back on line. More soon

@REadesJr I will check on this. ERCOT notifies each utility of how much load needs to be curtailed to keep the grid secure. Then software is used to keep outages controlled, rotating, and in compliance with ERCOT's mandate.

@FarmersEC would it be possible for you to Tweet warnings to areas that you are about to shut down during the rolling outages?

@CatholicRepubl3 Great question. ERCOT says that extreme weather conditions caused many generating units – across fuel types – to trip offline and become unavailable. Some renewable sources are iced over and not producing. ERCOT has some information about this at ercot.com/news/releases/…

@yeayea409 I'll be glad to have a Member Care Team Member reach out to you for more details on medical necessities. You can message us your contact information.

@FarmersEC when are you going leave the electricity on? This 20 mins on then off again is killing me. I pay you to deliver electricity and currently you are not doing that!!! You don't even know if I need my electricity due to medical reasons

@yeayea409 I checked ERCOT.com and operating reserves are still below 3,000MW. ERCOT remains at an EEA 3 status - Rotating Outages in Progress. ercot.com/eea_info/show/…

@lisajcox Good afternoon, you and your neighbor may not be served by the same feeder line. Your neighbors may have some kind of backup generation. The feeder your neighbor is on may also provide energy to an emergency facility. We attempt to avoid curtailing load to this type of facility.

@FarmersEC I live in Wylie. I’ve had rolling blackouts since 1:00 am. My neighbor directly across the street is on FEC & has had none. Why???
