Yeah. In theory that’s a short-term issue, as you can build more power plants and infrastructure to burn more fossil fuels to provide power, although there’s an obvious vicious cycle there. If we can figure out grid storage, renewables would also work, and I think it’s hopeful that we will.
Of course, if you’re in Texas, the government might just not feel like implementing new stuff to combat what they consider woke weather.
