Hurricane Beryl: Road to Recovery

People seeking answers and still seeking power after CenterPoint Energy’s delayed response. Houston and surrounding areas…we have a problem!. When Winter Storm Uri hit the state of Texas in February 2021, it exposed the many inadequacies we have in the state relative to the separate electricity grid with the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT). Well over 3.5 million Texans were forced to be without power to warm their homes and the Texas Department of State Health Services declared that 246 was the official death toll because of Winter Storm Uri in Texas. Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott asked the Republican-controlled Texas State Legislature to conduct investigations into what preparations and decisions were made by ERCOT in advance of Winter Storm Uri.
