Yes there is a lack of regulation around winter weatherization. However, this is not a Texas only problem, in fact the PUCT requirements for weatherization exceed the current NERC standards and are similar to the new requirements that should be approved in November. Also standards for weatherization were proposed to NERC all the way back in 2011 but they were rejected.
- joe_the_user 6y agoYes, the lack of regulation around winter weatherization. Lack of regulation is a product of the broad trend to deregulation. California has suffered PG&E's despicable policies fueled by deregulation, that have also killed dozens of people and caused billions of dollars of property loss. So it's not a Texas only problem. But it certainly is a behavior of Texas (Government, regulators and industry) problem just as California's problems are a behavior of California (Government, regulators and industry) problem.
