Getting Unrestricted About The Texas Winter Storm w/Energy Expert Krystal Blacklock

Prolonged frigid temperatures last month caused electricity demand in the Texas power grid, or ERCOT, to explode. The extreme cold resulted in more than 30GW of power plant outages, and a situation where demand outstripped supply by 30%. This resulted in millions of Texans being without power, heat, and clean water. This week, The Unrestricted Podcast speaks with Krystal Blacklock, former Direct Energy employee. They're going to tell us about how the state’s power, oil and gas sectors went down at once, and what Texas might consider to 'build back better'.
