#ERCOT has been running at 85% clean today: 75% wind and solar and 10% nuclear. You would have been laughed out of the room if you predicted this 10 years ago. But the smallest interconnection in North America is cranking away at 75% variable resources. Beautiful sight. @gridstatus.io #EnergySky

#EnergySky #ERCOT looking good this morning thanks to 3.3 GW of storage dispatching before solar came ramping up, also - 20% of energy from Wind doesn't hurt! Prices below $60/MWh. Nice work Texas - Batteries save consumers $$ and keep the lights on even when it is COLD. @gridstatus.io

Look at that incredible #ERCOT market today. Nice to have good news in these crazy times. 60% wind and solar. 70% carbon free. 100% awesome. May be even better for TX Independence Day tomorrow. Oh, 20GW of thermals offline. #EnergySky

I still firmly believe Energy Only markets (like #ERCOT and #AEMO) provide the right investment signals to get the right kind of generation online. Capacity markets don't deliver - they are not long term enough to finance new investment, and just provide windfall profits to incumbents.
