LETTERS: Our 1960s-era electric grid; rights, responsibilities and community

Regrettably, the report is correct, the grid serving Peterson AFB does not make the grade. The first deficiency is the physical security of the 1960s-era electric substation near the Peterson Road entrance. It is not hardened and could be taken out with a few well-placed rifle shots.

LIST: Texas lawmakers tell us what they are doing to fix the state’s electric system Updated:  Tags:  TEXAS – State lawmakers are pouring through more than 200 proposed bills in Austin that would bring change to Texas’ electricity market. While almost all of the proposed laws focus on requiring power generators to maintain their plants to avoid another massive outage like we saw in the winter freeze, one bill would make wholesale and variable rate electric plans (like the plans sold by Griddy) illegal in Texas. We asked all of the state representatives and state senators from the greater Houston area the same three questions to find out which lawmakers are working to resolve the issues with Texas’ electric market. Twenty-four lawmakers didn’t answer our questions. You’ll see who didn’t reply at the bottom of this article.
