Satan Soldiers at ERCOT Admits It Cut Power to Texas Gas Facilities In February, “Plandemic”
HNewsWire reported back in May that Brad Jones said the operator’s decision during February’s winter storm to set prices for wholesale electricity at the highest level — for 32 hours longer than may have been necessary — “overrode the ERCOT protocols.”
The move cost CPS Energy and other Texas utilities billions of dollars.
“The market rules themselves weren’t changed, but what is important to know is that the market rules were not followed,” Jones said May 4 to the Senate Business and Commerce Committee.“This was a deviation from the ERCOT rules.”
His comments were a departure from testimony previous CEO Bill Magness gave in late February defending ERCOT’s pricing decision. And Jones’ statements could bolster CPS’ lawsuit against ERCOT, which seeks to shield the utility from high ERCOT charges during that 32-hour period.
A dangerous heat wave is forecasted for Texas next week.
The state’s Public Utility Commission (PUC) and Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) informed customers Thursday that the power grid is in good shape and can withstand triple-digit temperatures.
The chair of the PUC told customers the number one priority next week is to keep the lights on for Texans.
“We are in a good position,” PUC Chairman Peter Lake said in a Thursday news conference.
“It will be tight for the rest of the summer,” Lake added. “We know the heat is coming, but we are ready for it.“
He stood beside interim ERCOT President Brad Jones, who also spoke about reliability across the power grid next week. It was the second time the Jones and the new chair of the PUC appeared together to reassure the public about grid stability after a disastrous grid collapse during a winter blast in February.
Jim Rouiller, the lead meteorologist at the Energy Weather Group, told Bloomberg that a heat wave would form in the Great Plains this weekend and drive temperatures in Dallas above the 100-degree mark for the first time this year. We noted earlier this week that parts of the agriculture belt would experience rising temperatures and drier conditions over the coming weeks.
Rouiller said, “next week will be the hottest week they have had all summer long. Cooling demand will be the highest we have seen all summer.” Below is the cooling demand for the Midwest. What this means is that demand for energy needed to cool buildings will increase as temperatures rise.
Allison Prater, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Fort Worth, said Dallas-Fort Worth has yet to hit a 100F this year. Usually, the area reaches triple-digit temperatures by July 1.
This summer’s heat has been centered around the Pacific Northwest, setting record high temperatures in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, along with other surrounding states.
The high pressure, or heat dome, will be centered around Oklahoma, making conditions in Iowa to Arkansas brutal this weekend and next week
“This is the hottest one so far for them, this is the dome of doom,” Rouiller said.
Power grid prices are expected to rise through next week. As for the integrity of the power grid, there’s no telling what may happen next week, if that is outages or calls by regulators for customers to reduce power.
Threat manufactured in one way or another by our own government.
Think about it. Cyberwarfare. Terrorism. Bio-chemical attacks. The nuclear arms race. Surveillance. The drug wars. Domestic extremism. The COVID-19 plandemic.
In almost every instance, the U.S. government (often spearheaded by the FBI) has in its typical Machiavellian fashion sown the seeds of terror domestically and internationally in order to expand its own totalitarian powers.
