The motive behind the apagon that has more than four million customers without electricity in Texas

Off Texas and old states stand empress to discover that when much free time can be difficult to produce electricity. Prohibition of sin, not impossible. Electric power plant operators in Alaska, Canada, Maine, Norway and Siberia have all the time.

What he has been talking about in Texas is not an engineering problem, nor are the big turbines connected to the prominent Republican culprits. It is a financial structure for the generation of energy that does not incentivize the operators of power plants to prepare for the winter. According to the critics, in the name of deregulation and free markets, Texas has created an electric red that puts emphasis on low prices for a reliable service.

It’s a “Lejano Oeste’s market design is based solely on prices in short supply”, señaló Matt Breidert, managing director of a company called llamada Turtle Ekofin, según cita The Washington Post.

And, without embarrassment, the temporary accident of this market on Monday and March came the mayor’s price of electricity in Houston not $ 22 the megavatio per hour approximately 9,000. Mientras tanto, 4 Million Texas Hogs No Ten Electricity.

The company of public services Griddy, which sells energy to senior citizens’ premiums without giving up a price for adelantado, communicates to its customers the markets that will provide another provider for non-aborted verses with huge invoices.

The generalized fracas in Texas and, in the Middle Ages, Oklahoma and Louisiana also have a universal holiday oil expose the failures of a state that some come as the most abandoned in the United States Electric Infrastructure, a reflection of the chaos that azotó in California the verano pasade.

Edward Hirs, University of Houston Energy Center, will ensure that the reversal in electricity production is the record for the last years of the Soviet Union, the current petroleum sector in Venezuela: “Odian cuando digo eso”, afirmó a The Washington Post.

The Intermediate Question That Encourages the Texas Electricity Sector if their integrants are available to pay for the type of conditioning for the winter that their communes go further north, throughout a period of time that is a decade in a decade.

The Governor of Texas, the Republican Greg Abbott, pidió el martes una Operator reform of the state’s electric power, the Texas Electricity Confidence Council (ERCOT, por sus siglas in English).

“Inhabited habitats are without electricity and heat in their homes and our state is in low temperatures and a very severe climate,” said in a statement. “Esto is unacceptable”, añadió.

I will ensure that I work with the legislature to find forms to guarantee that the state “never wants to experiment with energy sources like this”.

The Republican President of the Texas House of Representatives, Dade Phelan, announced public hearings to say “qué salió mal”.

Fossil fuel combustion groups and their Republican allies are responsible for power failures in convoluted Ebolic turbines and to advise on the most important sources of alternative energy sources. Hecho, some turbines converge, pero in Greenland and other northern advanced sites can maintain them during the winter.

Prohibition of probes, the wind represents only 10% of the energy generated in Texas during the winter, and the loss of energy in the red caused by the cores of thermal power plants, mainly those that depend on natural gas, eclipsed the abolition caused by the combined eel turbines, by a factor of five or six.

When the Gulf holiday, the demand for electricity surpassed the mark that ERCOT had calculated that would be the maximum need. But at one point the world was inundated with natural gas excesses, large part of the Texas poses, state-of-the-art energy generation operators can convert this gas into electricity to satisfy its demand.

With very low temperatures, the tubers converge because it has some humidity in the gas. The bombs are dismantled, diesels are powered by the power plants and a power plant is disconnected. Includes a reactor and one of the nuclear plants of the state that were darkened, obstructed by congelados teams.

“At a time when the need is the mayor that never, there is a tension in the system as never before seen”, dijo Tom Seng, director of the School of Economics, Politics and Energy Commerce of the University of Tulsa, says The Washington Post.

Afirmó que in all the surest of the United States has a hole in the gas and means that the sources are disconnected. También dijo que the mayor’s part of the excess gas is very low tierra, and that the surface of the surface is full that is more difficult in low temperature temperatures. The futuros de marzo para el gas naturlike se venden a 3 dollars from the BTU in Oklahoma, pero el precio al contado llegó en 600 dolares during the end of week.

And Texas, producing natural gas channels millions of the subways from the heads of the knife, the information Anne Swedberg Robba, Director of Gas and Energy Analysis S&P Global Platts. At the national level, production has been reduced by approximately one 14%.

“But this is not the first time we have seen this problem in Texas,” said Hirs, of the University of Houston, quoted by The Washington Post.

Una holiday oil will have two places in the surest of the United States in 2011, and extremely low temperatures in 1983, 1989, 2003, 2006, 2008 and 2010. A study led by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission in the Electricity Confidence Corporation of North America, about the year 2011, which also generated apagones generalized by the different reasons, hello that “The huge amount of generational failures that we are experimenting with is the question of whether we should use it to increase the reserve levels before success”. “This action may have resulted in more units online than before, it may have avoided some of the congestion issues that may have been experienced by the generators and may have had operational issues in time for implementing corrections before the units were implemented,” he said. .

On Tuesday, both agencies announced that they were investigating the causes of this year’s fracture.

Texas compares to California with the voluntary compensation of a las empresas de generación por el mantenimiento, differs from the majority of the rest of the country, expressed Hirs. Agrego that what superseded California in the caloric value of the past has now been reflected in the Texas winter.

“Tanto Texas como California han fracasado spectacularmente este año”, indicó. “There is a tremendous human cost. Lots of people in California and Texas ”, remark.

Texas is unique among the states to have a red property that is completely home to the rest of the country. It is said that importing a lot of electricity means that its energy plants fail, but Hirs made sure that the holiday was as long as the heart of the country that we do not have electricity in all modes.

Bill Magness, Executive Director of ERCOT, declared in an interview with the television channel WFAA jw.org af Dallas that creates the red state Estabia better prepared for the winter of what Establishes.

“In 2018 we will have some very cool winter holidays, but we see that the generation fleets will be very well off”, he said. ‘I believe that we are actually making some progress towards these times of winter. And this torment has been extraordinary. We are expecting a large number of units that depend on reasons that are relevant to the climate, by which, without doubt, the preparation for the winter is something that must be constantly observed”, Manifesto.

Although it is temporal, a factor that may have been perpetrated by the repentant high mayor of the provocative electricity provoked by the ERCOT computers ordenaran to the companies that “Get rid of the cargo”, es decir, que eliminate customers, make it easy to increase costs.

The Public Service Commission of the State Order of ERCOT lunes that permit these high prices. There are cases where it does not last much, and the temperatures are below that. The cost of this electricity, at least in the short term, will probably be recovered more in the minor public services.
