Governor addresses power outage concerns
What they’re saying:
Addressing lingering public anxiety following the deadly 2021 winter storm, Abbott offered a firm guarantee of stability, noting that the state has added over 40,000 MW of power to the grid since then.
“The ERCOT grid has never been stronger,” Abbott said. “There is no expectation whatsoever that there’s going to be any loss of power from the power grid.”
