Texas and California are leading the way in the US, with a strong focus on energy storage technology.
https://www.google.com/amp/s/oilprice.com/Energy/Energy-General/US-Battery-Storage-Is-Booming.amp.html

Texas is a quite a place. There are a lot of smart people in Texas, I mean, it's a giant place, with multiple world class research universities. It also has Greg Abbott. Work on wind, solar, etc... will go on in Texas because there is money to be made and the smart people to go make it. The Governor and the State Legislature are not amongst that group of smart people.

Like Trump railing on windmills. Walz talked about farmers harvesting wind in the Veep debate, I think they are underusing his ability to draw attention to this. Farmers aren't putting windmills on Illinois farmland because of JB Pritzker's socialist decree. They are doing it because it's good business.

Abbott sending the illegal immigrants flooding into his state to liberal sanctuary cities the past two years might have been the smartest political move of this election cycle. But dumb according to Murph.

No need to speculate. We'll find out in a month

Trump slams US response to Helene. His own disaster-response record is marked by politics

"As president, Trump delayed disaster aid for hurricane-devastated Puerto Rico and diverted money from the Federal Emergency Management Agency in order to finance an effort to return undocumented migrants to Mexico. And Project 2025, backed by Trump supporters, would restructure FEMA to limit aid to states and says that the National Weather Service, which provides crucial data on hurricanes and other storms, “should be broken up and downsized.”'

He was allegedly for it before he never heard of it.

"Former President Donald Trump criticized the Biden administration’s response to the widespread devastation caused by Hurricane Helene, even as his supporters have called for cuts to federal agencies that warn of weather disasters and deliver relief to hard-hit communities."

"He commented more than once that, 'You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'" Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.

The power companies and their large corporate customers are also driving the grid decarbonization bus in Texas.  It's finally sunk in; climate change is bad for business.

The fact that their grid has had issues (and is untethered to the rest of the country) may be driving this as well.

Definitely.  Need to build more power lines, diversify the energy resources and build resiliency into the grid.  I think they'll get there.
