The texas power grid is amazing just as long as its not cold, hot or windy outside.



lol, if you don’t like your power grid, in Texas you can choose amongst 30 other power companies to provide your electricity. In other states you’re at the whims and high prices of a local monopoly.

  •If one isn’t reliable; pick a different one. 

  •If one jacked up prices; pick a different one.

  •If you want to sell solar, wind, or stored battery electricity back to the grid, pick one that will let you. Battery is sometimes the most benefit/cost with a tiered pricing option.
