    When 88% of your customers are without power from a category 1 hurricane, your infrastructure investments and management are inadequate!
  • @tomhare8740
    The map sucks and is NOT accurate! We have been green since day 1 and no power. I'm buying a Generac so I won't have to rely on an inept power company any longer. This is the third time this year without power over 3 days. No more

    Unfortunately its what happens when private companies are not required to keep their infrastructure up to date.

    ERCOT needs to go away!, Split Texas down the middle, Half on the Eastern Grid half on the Western Grid!!
  • @Robert-kx8fs
    NOW, they have an interactive power outage tracker by address! They probably had it before they just didn’t want their customers using it. I laugh every time I hear “we’re going to investigate” by political bureaucrats. I laugh so hard it blows away their political BS and I can see and understanding what is really happening.

    When private enterprise fails, it is always the federal government and taxpayer that picks up the pieces. When private enterprises succeed, it is due to their hard work, so they should not be taxed.

    We are responsible for not taking care of the planet! 🌎 Mother Nature is Mother Nature!
  • @joycescott5561
    It's just the way it is. Texaa hasn't gotten thier infrastructure such as the electicty up to standard. When we have severe cold in the winter or the summer heat.
  • @ajdolphin7
    Keep voting for politicians who care more about big business. And hate Federsl Government but now want Federsl aid
  • @wujianwendy
    I blame the governor. He did not do his job well.
  • @jsurfslammer
    Has anyone seen any workers out today, Saturday?
  • @DJL0455
    Where the hell is Gov. Wheelchair???!!!
  • @jkseraphim4
    People who laughed and called preppers bad better start apologizing and start learning to be self sufficient.😡
  • @NDB469
    I’d say hurricane Beryl had something to do with it.
