Over 200 people died in the disaster, considered the worst infrastructural failure in the state’s history. the Electric Reliability Council of Texas which supplies power to 90% of the state — issued a weather alert for Saturday to Tuesday warning of higher electrical demand and the potential for lower reserves.

 

 

“Grid conditions are expected to be normal during ERCOT Weather Watch,” ERCOT said.

 

ERCOT said it is coordinating preparation efforts with the Texas Energy Reliability Council and Texas Division of Emergency Management and other agencies, and encourages locals to sign up for grid condition notifications.
