Let’s not totally make up news. The extreme cold event did happen, 246 people died, obviously failings on getting facilities prepared for an extreme winter event, how parts of the grid were shut down and ultimately the limited interconnects with the other national grids. I don’t believe there are prime examples for people dead from the heat because of their grid.

- infecto 3y agoCorrect but as I said originally. The only deaths were during the major winter storm. I appreciate facts not made up narratives like the GP.
