BILLINGS — Even mighty Texas, the energy powerhouse of America, is feeling the wrath of Mother Nature. And the consumption of power throughout the nation’s midsection during an unprecedented cold snap is causing rolling blackouts as far north as Eastern Montana.
Two Montana electric cooperatives, NorVal and McCone, both had brief rolling blackouts Tuesday related to the southern winter storms, which affected hundreds of customers.
NorVal Electric Co-op serves about 1,925 customers in the Opheim-Glasgow area, while McCone Electric s service area includes 14,400 square miles stretching from Miles City to Glendive to Wolf Point, then west to Cat Creek. ....

Minor Montana power outage stokes political rhetoric


No, there were not rolling blackouts across Montana on Tuesday.
There were 30 minutes when the 900 or so residents of Jordan and Circle were without electricity. The local electric cooperative told customers what was up on social media. Once word got to Twitter, the fuse was lit.
As a winter juggernaut left millions of Americans freezing without power, politicians in Montana used the crisis to ratchet up their rhetoric about fossil fuels, President Joe Biden and a pivot to clean energy.
“Please see my statement on the reports of rolling blackouts in Montana,” tweeted Montana’s U.S. Rep. Matt Rosendale. The rolling blackouts today in Montana, as a result of strain on our shared power grid with other states, demonstrate the dangerous consequences of transitioning away from reliable fossil fuel-based power sources. It is obscene that Montana ratepayers are being forced to ration electricity in subzero temperatures a month into the Biden administration.†....
