#ERCOT Winter Seasonal Assessment is out. While ERCOT and @PUCTX disputed @FERC's October assessment that we would have a deficit of 18GW in extreme cold, ERCOT finds in an extreme event, we would be short 9-12GW which would result in lenghty outages. #txlege 1/
The biggest problem with the SARA report is they only account for three major problems:

- high demand
- high thermal outages
- low wind

They still don't account for gas supply disruption, which could make outages >9-12GW in the winter. This is not yet fixed. #txenergy 2/
Good to see ERCOT finally acknolwedge that extreme winter demand could reach 80GW. I still think that undershoots it a bit (@AndrewDessler & team think demand in Feb 2021 was 82GW) but is closer to reality than ERCOT has ever acknowledged before. 3/

A continuación, viene un hilo [🧵] sobre la #automatización del trabajo, los #robots y una serie de #ideas💡a tomar en cuenta ➡️... Image
Probablemente, te preguntarás, ¿Por qué la #automatización del #trabajo 🦾ha llamado tu atención?

¿Es acaso debido a las películas de #Terminator, o tal vez, #Robocop, #WALL·E o Nueve de #ShaneAcker? ⬇️
La verdad es que, todo esto se deriva de una muy particular #pasión por no morirme de hambre 😂 en un #mundo 🌎 cada vez más #competitivo, automatizado y #tecnológico. ⬇️ Image

Now into a second day of Russian strikes designed to cripple Ukraine's civilian population heading into winter. This is not revenge for the Kerch Strait bridge, this is state sponsored terrorism by a dictator who has failed to fill the shoes of his heroes like Hitler and Peter
The Great. He has now moved from Ukraine will be part of the Russian Empire again to if I can't have it no one can. He seeks to de-energize the entire country and also make the countries soviet era district heating system using centralized thermal plants inoperable. Its a slow
attempted murder attempt to kill as many people and depopulate a city much as a nuke would but without the mushroom clouds and fall out... Well there will be fall out he is trying to force Ukraine to move enmass. We are now watching one of the most important races in human

Spectaculaires images spectaculaires de la fuite gaz sur le gazoduc Nord Stream 2 dans la mer Baltique. Il y a trois fuites simultanées selon le premier ministre danois.

Il existe également une vidéo diffusée par l'armée danoise.

Ainsi qu'un communiqué de presse : forsvaret.dk/en/news/2022/g…

Dans les eaux danoises, le tuyau en acier utilisé a une épaisseur de 26,8 mm. Le tuyau est ensuite recouvert d'un revêtement anticorrosion à 3 couches avant d'être recouvert de béton armé pour un poids supplémentaire.

"'I think demand would exceed supply and some customers would be without electricity' if there's another bout of bad weather comparable to the storms in February, said Beth Garza" of @RSI

"'If we get the same weather, we will have outages' attributable to an overmatched power grid, said Doug Lewin... 'They may not be as (widespread), and they may not be as long-lasting — but we will have outages.'"

I’m deeply frustrated & concerned about the assessment of winter resource adequacy released by #ERCOT yesterday. *Everyone* agreed communication & planning needed improvement but yesterday demonstrated little has changed & it might be worse.
#txlege 1/🧵
dallasnews.com/news/politics/…
I was quoted in the @dallasnews on this assessment from ERCOT. “It’s a political document not reflective of reality,” I said and added that ERCOT’s quiet release of the report late Friday “speaks volumes.”

Allow me to explain. #energytwitter #txlege 2/18
The assessment released yesterday is not a reflection of reality.

Why? Let’s focus on two things in ERCOT's “extreme scenario:”

(1) Forecasted demand
(2) Thermal outages

There are public comments today. Haven't heard any public comments in many months. Emma Pabst speaks eloquently for #energyefficiency #demandresponse and public participation. Calls for a meeting targeted to helping the public understand what's going on at the @PUCTX
Misty O'Quinn not testifies to @PUCTX says her daughter had asthma during the outages and couldn't power her medical equipment. Called 911 but no one could come. Had to "slide" to the hospital to get help but they were on generators and it was cold there

"This shouldn't happen."

ERCOT's Jones tells Carrollton City Council: Generation fleet lost 50,000MW because of equipment failure and lack of fuel supply. That's equal to all of California's peak and was more than half of Texas' entire generation fleet.
#txlege #txenergy
When we lose supply, we have turn to the load side to keep balance. We turn to large facilities that have given us the ability to turn down their usage. (he's talking about #demandresponse which we need more of!!!) Once that's exhausted we have to turn off residential customers.

#WinterIsComing deshalb ein paar Worte zu Erkältungen u. Grippe:

1. Eine Erkältung kommt nicht von kalter Luft. Gleiches gilt für die Grippe. Deshalb gibt’s beides auch in den Tropen. Es braucht immer Viren (oder Bakterien).

2. Zugluft ist bewegte Luft und kein Infektionsherd.
Was man vermutet: Kälte könnte empfänglicher machen für eine Infektion.

Was man schon lange weiß: Kälte kann eine Infektion nicht verursachen. Es braucht immer die Krankheitserreger. Die Übertragung erfolgt von Mensch zu Mensch über Tröpfchen, Schmierinfektion und Aerosole.
Fakt ist: Erkältungen und Grippe treten in unseren Breiten häufiger in der kalten Jahreszeit auf.

Koinzidenz ist aber eben keine Kausalität.

Wir halten uns dann viel mehr in schlecht belüfteten Innenräumen auf, was die Übertragung u. Infektion begünstigen könnte.

Bugün sizlere geçen hafta ikinci kez okuduğum #PeterLynch reisin #Borsayıyenmek kitabını @InvestorSwedish'in hazırladığı infografiklerle ve karikatürler yardımıyla özetleyeceğim. @Scala_Kitapci Güzel çeviri için teşekkürler.
Soğuk iklimde yaşayanların çok iyi bildiği gibi kış elbet bir gün gelecek. Dondurucu soğuklara her zaman hazırlıklı olmak gerekecektir. #winteriscoming
Borsada da aynı şekilde her zaman hayat günlük gülistanlık olmayacaktır. Ayı piyasalarının her zaman geleceğini bilmemiz, ona göre hazırlıklarımızı yapmamız gerekiyor.

Günlük fiyat hareketlerinden daha çok büyük resme odaklanmamız gerektiğini bize hatırlatıyor Peter.

1/TrackRecord's Observation of the Day 💭: Winter Is Coming

We are on the precipice of a perfect confluence of forces that will result in unprecedented volatility in the coming months.
2/As winter is literally coming, there is a good chance Covid-19 will come back with a vengeance, can governments afford the economic brunt of another lockdown?
3/One of the reasons for yesterday’s selloff was this fear and main street is well aware of the economic impact (Jobs gets decimated).

Hoy hace 76 días que pisé por ultima vez @Pyxisportal edificio. Ese Viernes 13 fue el último en que fui a trabajar, almorcé con mis compañeros y terminó la jornada con un #AsadoDeLosNuevos
#WinterIsComing y con ello las naranjas. Y qué tiene que ver? Image
La 🍊 es de mis frutas favoritas, y pelaras sin enchastrarme las manos es de las habilidades más elogiadas en el piso 10, así que decidí escribir un hilo 🧵 sobre cómo pelar una y no hacer un desastre en el camino, para los compas con los que hace 76 días no almorzamos juntos
Lo fundamental para esto es no cortar los gomos: cortar los gomos libera el jugo y asegura el enchastre. Es por esto que preferimos las naranjas de mesa: una cáscara gruesa facilita el trabajo.

El primer paso es cortar arriba y abajo los "polos" de la naranja ImageImageImage

La dernière saison de #GameofThrones convoque un hiver très long, des zombies, des #dragons et même un dragon zombie. Rien de nouveau sous le soleil : c'est déjà la recette du Ragnarök des mythes nordiques médiévaux. Un thread ⬇️ ! #histoire #MedievalTwitter
L'article du jour a été écrit par Jules Piet, doctorant à l'Université de Strasbourg (@unistra) et à l'Université d'Islande. Spéciale dédicace à la @GuildePerouges puisqu'on s'était rencontrés en octobre lors de Fest'Ain d'Histoire !
Le grand poème mythologique Völuspa, conservé dans un manuscrit de la fin du XIIIe siècle, annonce que le Ragnarök commencera par le fimbulvetr, un atroce hiver de trois ans, durant lequel les familles s’entre déchireront dans des guerres. #winteriscoming

I’m here at the @NewWayCA 2019 Summit with a simple message: We have an obligation to offer California a @CAGOP with broad appeal again – because a vibrant, competitive two-party system is essential for our state.
California prides itself on being a place where innovation is born.

It’s time for our party to tap into that bold attitude – and modernize itself as a party in step with the residents we want to represent.
The @CAGOP must not be a carbon copy of the national GOP.

Each state is a unique laboratory of democracy, and California Republicans need to create a party tailored to the people of California.

Etrange réveil ce matin aux #EtatsUnis, jamais peut-être depuis aussi longtemps 1 société n'est apparue aussi divisée, en proie à des tensions violentes que les institutions ne parviennent plus à tempérer et exacerbent parfois...#thread #Trump
2) Après la tuerie de masse du journal @capitalgazette, les médias nationaux repassent en boucle cette scène où le président US #Trump refuse de s'exprimer pour réconforter victimes, familles, concitoyens...le président n'est plus le "consolateur en chef"
3)...cette nouvelle tuerie du Maryland, où 1 déséquilibré a voulu régler 1 vendetta personnelle avec 1 journal, voit aussi les #EtatsUnis découvrir qu'1 polémiste"nationaliste-identitaire"ayant son rond de serviette chez Fox et Breitbart, peut appeler au meurtre de #journalistes
