Gas & coal plant outages in Texas are up 40% in the last 48 hours. Solar carried the day & batteries just set a new record at sunset. Gas plants are important energy resources but they struggle in extreme heat & cold. Better to have a diverse resource mix, as Texas does. 1/
I'm a former Citadel quant who covered power & gas.

Tesla has signed a long-term power purchase agreement with Zelestra for the entire output of the 140MWac Lumen Farm solar project in Texas.
Zelestra said the solar farm is expected to enter construction in 2027 and achieve full operations in 2029.
Republicans decrying communist involvement in the Democrat party just looked the other way when this administration nationalized ownership of these private companies:
• Intel 10%
• MP Materials 15%

For the first time yesterday, I experienced the new @alamodrafthouse QR code ordering system and I can tell you it’s truly awful. Rather than making ordering food and drink more efficient, it actually adds steps to the process AND if you want to order additional items during the film you HAVE to open your phone. No, your cute reference to that irony in your How To Alamo video doesn’t negate how ridiculous this is. Please don’t cut corners with your staff and revert back to physical menus and order cards.
