Great presentation at @ERCOT_ISO board from Pia Orrenius, Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas. Biggest concerns? labor concerns due to less migration and immigration - cut by more than half from a year ago, inflation and federal cuts to safety programs.

Congrats to @RudyDGarza on his appointment as GM of @LCRA @texassierraclub looks forward to working with Garza and his team on both electric and water issues. Just don't forget that energy and water conservation is the first "conservative" principle! lcra.org/news/news-releases/…

Nearly 1/2 of people living in the U.S. reside in counties with failing grades for air pollution. @EPA spent the last year gutting protections to #CutMethane and other dangerous pollutants. W/out EPA’s help, it will get worse. Learn more: Lung.org/sota #StateOfTheAir

On a very interesting call on the proposed @ERCOT_ISO batch process. I am beginning to understand why we need a batch process - they are overwhelmed by these requests that have come in droves since late 2024
