Is The Texas Grid Getting Federalized?

Our grid will surely "glow"

If you’ve lived in Texas since at least 2021, you’ve either experienced or know someone who endured our state’s grid failure in late winter of the previously mentioned year. With 246 dead from ERCOT’s failure to secure first world living standards for Texans during winter, the event became colloquially called “the Holofrost.”

Despite early warnings (even with ERCOT honchos not residing in Texas), Texan authorities did almost nothing to prevent this tragedy, focusing on more important matters like diversity and climate change.

With few solid reforms made to fix our ever-stressed electrical grid, a sinister proposal to federalize Texan electricity surfaced.

Texas’ electric grid will be connected to the rest of the nation for the first time through a new privately built transmission line subsidized by federal money.

The Southern Spirit line, which is receiving $360 million of the $1.5 billion in infrastructure funding announced by the Department of Energy Thursday, would connect the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) grid to Louisiana and Mississippi.

….

“For a long time, we’ve stared at ERCOT and thought, ‘how can we build more resilience into a system that looks more like an island than an interconnected grid, drawing on the resources in other parts of the country.’ This build-out is really transformational in breaking down the barrier between ERCOTand the rest of the country,” White House National Climate Adviser Ali Zaidi told reporters, according to energy industry publication Power.

Renewable energy company Pattern Energy plans to start construction in 2028 with the line going into service in 2031. It is expected to cost $2.6 billion, would be 320 miles long and would offer 3,000 megawatts of high-voltage, direct current electricity in both directions. 

As you can see, vile actors in the Kamala Occupation Government (KOG) are exploiting Texas’s non-reforms to force our state into electric dependency. Judging by the involvement of climate change cultists, this will probably come with strings attached favoring unreliable “green energies” like solar panels and bird killing pinwheels (wind turbines.) While promoters of this proposal claim it’ll help in disaster cases, seeing how the Federal government manages these happenings debunks such statements.

For instance, let’s see how they managed Hurricane Helene’s wreckage across more than six states.

If the national government can’t even manage disaster response, spending tax money on feeding cat-sacrificing illegal aliens and Middle East conflicts that aren’t our problem, what makes you think they can manage Texas any better in our time of need?

Needless to say, Texas should remain on its own, and I hear reports some in the Texas Legislature are planning to combat this intrusion. Let’s ensure Texas remains electricity independent, and be free from DC.

Hopefully this remains true.
