How Texas Power Grid Failed Against Winter Blast | NBC Nightly News

1. Yes, but why couldn’t supply keep up with demand?

2. Our rolling blackout lasted 35 hours. Came back on for an hour and a half. Then was off again for 18 hours. Not really a rolling blackout. Our house got Dow to 45 degrees inside. Some people got down into the 30s. Ou unregulated electric grid may need some regulation.

3. I wonder what insurance companies will have to say about the grid going foward.

4. nice video

5. Good nice video very much

6. Thumb up

7. The Green New Deal! People died of hypothermia ! They knew this was a problem and were supposed to correct after similar storm 10 years ago! Those in charge should all be fired! They killed people with inaction and poor actions!

8. how many California bashing deserters are stuck there now? enjoy!

9. Deregulation is a failed policy and now Texas is a filed state.

10. Yeah, this didn’t Age Well… “Winds works just as well as Gas, Oil, Diesel or Nuclear!" until it doesn’t 🥴

12. Thank DemocRATs who want to go from petroleum products to solar and wind power plants,
    I hope Nancy Pelosi and Schumer are living without power for a week.
    But DemocRATs want to be greenies, this is what is what winters have waiting for you

13. This didn't match the Title, I still have no idea why the grid failed, only what was done and not done after

14. No state income tax and privatization

    Failure of capitalism

    Conservative fools

15. "I'll believe in climate change when Texas freezes over" -Ted Cruz
    It's time buddy

16. Good nice video very much

17. Its so sad Americans pay dearly for these top level individuals even the head chair over the P.U.C.. I think this was a pure calculate event on Texan voters to stir up job growth and force people to work in unsafe work conditions. They do the same to start a war and chaos. My hat is off to you governor.

18. Hang on a second, what's happened to a great place to enjoy spring break in March? I was gonna have a two week vacation there.

19. READ Dept of Energy order 202-21-1

    Texas requested for the extra capacity and was told to just rely on outside sources because their clean coal and Nat gas plants are "too dirty"

    The most interesting part is the order says NOTHING about carbon DIOXIDE only cites MONOXIDE as pollution 🤔🤔🤔🤔

20. They just failed to provide redundancy.

21. Dept of Energy wouldn't allow them to produce at full capacity thanks to sleepy Joe rejoining the Paris Accord, read it on the DOE website for yourself

    They have the capacity and the Governor requested days ahead of the storm for them to be allowed to control their own power and the request was denied

    Contrary to this lady claiming traditional sources failing it was actually the direct results of DEMOCRAT CONTROL

22. Americans live in a fantasy world. my capitalism forces you to collapse, I hope you will encounter worse events, I am a Turkish citizen. Leave the Middle Eastern countries alone. Live in your own geography

23. Department of Energy Order No: 202-21-1
    BANNED.VIDEO

24. We cannot drift towards a blackout. Instead we'll charge $9,000 per megawatt hour. We have the same equipment in Michigan and it's running just fine @-5°F

25. Abbott said he's taking responsibility , does that mean he is going to pick up all the costs people are getting hit with including burial costs for the dead ???

26. The politicians there were so corrupt and greedy that they allowed private companies to rob consumers blind. The winter storm could not be avoided but the preparation of the privatized power grid equipment should have been winterized. Private companies are not required to keep up with federal regulations and of course they don't want to spend the money to upgrade their outdated power grid.

27. Oh but don't blame the FROZEN WIND TURBINES RIGHT FAKE NEWS?

28. These power company’s have been charging $20 to $70 sur charge on every bill for 20 years now and have not up graded any thing.

29. Is this synchronistic retribution for those TX Politicians trying to get ballots thrown out in other states to overturn the Election ? ?

30. I like to know why I didn't have power for almost 3 1/2 days and our neighbors on the main hyway never lost theirs and there's no schools or hospitals near by 3 miles out of town ?

31. Unacceptable!
    I hope Texas makes some heads roll over this!

    Epic F***up

32. Maybe if you liberals get cold enough you'll go back to California where you belong

33. Biden's fault.

34. Should Scomo call US and offer coal export to USA for free?, suggest USA to build power grid with Australia coal?. Leave China in cold winter as many suggested.

35. Defund Ergot.

36. Not enough planning for REAL POSSIBILITIES – Mixed Virtue Signaling with Realities ! Feel good decisions made by WHO ? 🤔
