- It's not a stretch to say Hurricane Beryl left behind more than debris and fallen trees; with some residents going days without power, the emotional toll is ever-present, that's why KPRC 2 spoke with an expert on how we can try and cope during these stressful times.
Day 5 "Off-Grid" (no power)...
*Promises were made by Abbott years ago after more than 70 people died during a winter storm...
We still have -"late 19 Century technology"- electric poles for cables in rural areas and cities, exposed transformers and unprotected generators (from air, rain and winter)...
I am not sure if ERCOT includes every company that owns the infrastructure in Texas, but they have had plenty of time to rebuild, modernize and ultimately develop a network that has the capacity to supply the growing demand and a reliable grid across our State.
My comments are not about "bashing" or calling for people to be fired... the intention is to instill in the companies the will to Build systems with the high-quality that American ingenuity and American products used to have...
Sounds like sowshulizms
I hear you loud and clear bud ,totally agree,problem is all that goes against the built in profit incentive and that’s tough to combat without pressure from up above or us down below
@@deathuponusalll Agree...
the CEO from centerpointless lives comfortably in the woodlands where the power outage was maybe an hour tops? Man F that guy
Why aren't the power companies using the smart meters that we paid for. The meters can tell them who has power and who doesn't have power.
and use that for a better map
My friend’s pup went into seizures from this heat and finding an emergency vet was impossible 😢 …. We are all on edge and suffering nightmare etc. Centerpointless has blood on their greedy hands 🤬
Texas has known since 2011 that the grid was a sure failure. What have they been doing??!
Worst part after Ike was the abusive manager,Lynn, saying wasn't a big deal who didn't understand PTSD from the Rita evac. Both times berating a single mom taking care of kids,no power, exhausted... without coming to job herself. Abusive jobs amplify the trauma.
Let me offer some certainty, climate change is here and it’s only gonna get worse. Now you can stop worrying.
everyone already mental like joe biden before this happen like four years now
S.T.F.U. E.S.A.D. GET BACK INTO YOUR BASKET YOU MAGA TURD!
Dan Patrick and Greg Abbott failed Texas once again…..Open your eyes SISTER
Gee, thought yall was energy indepedent and off the national grid cuz gubmint utility regulations are the debbil or something 😂
