POLL QUESTION: Can ERCOT handle a hot summer?

Just when you thought it was safe to turn your air conditioner back on...

ERCOT is back in the news, warning of possible power outages and blackouts in the summer.

We thought, after February's epic winter storm, we would never see a power failure like we did in Texas ever again. But just last week, on a mild spring day, Texan's received a conservation warning.

"Very surprised" said David Holt, President of the Consumer Energy Alliance. "I think everyone remains a bit befuddled frankly, at the Texas power grid system. There was a big series of missteps during the February freeze."

One that was supposed to be fixed by the state legislature. But so far, there's just been a lot of hot air.

That leads us to our poll question today.
