Power plants will have to meet new weatherization standards in Texas
The Texas Public Utility Commission (PUC) is trying to learn a lesson from last winter’s miserable weather and rolling blackouts.

Energy companies must install additional insulation, test equipment, and protective sensors for equipment that may be at risk in cold weather. What do you of the steps that the commission took?
