ERCOT on Friday notified power generators in Texas that they need to be online and ready to provide power during an expected wave of cold air that could drop overnight temperatures into the 20s late next week.
"While we will continue to watch this forecast very closely, we do not believe that the intensity, duration, or impacts of the cold will rival what we saw in 2021, which saw mid or low teens for lows," wrote Space City Weather meteorologist Matt Lanza.
Generation facilities and transmission facilities are required to be protected from harsh cold, and ERCOT workers must inspect them to ensure they meet the new state standards.ERCOT maintenance periods were adjusted to better prepare for severe winter or summer conditions.
