As energy policy in the United States (and other places) continues to be driven by narrative and lobbyists instead of facts and reliability, ERCOT in Texas has a strange week this week: they issued two power warnings asking customers to conserve energy. In April. Now, I love the great state of Texas but I tend to avoid it in July and August (and June and September) owing to the heat. But April.... is the most pleasant time of year. This week, I invite David Blackmon on the podcast to chat ERCOT. Why are we back to where we were in February? How does the power problem not get worse this summer - in Texas, in California, and everywhere else in the county and what can be done about it. After all, there is no “no peeing section in a pool” and the heat is coming. Plus, DAPL, Keystone, Atlas Shrugged and great conversations with a great guest. I hope you enjoy!   https://youtu.be/sTkNVTdHyiU
