They probably won’t shut you down if it’s to make batteries. Well, at least if it’s batteries for electric vehicles that is!

Why would I compare missing a game to a death? Oh maybe as evidence that it wasn’t “that” bad.
But you are sensationalizing it. To the greatest extent. Do you not think out of almost 30million people in that state that there are less than 200 people who either A. Don’t have the sense to come in out of the cold (insane, homeless etc) or B. Don’t have an extenuating circumstance that lead to some cold weather killing them. (Likely pretty much the same as A?
What the ....?
Why do you even have to lie and distort to give excuses to these grossly incompetent and criminally negligent Texas leaders and electric company?
Those who died froze to death inside their homes for lack of power for heating.
Re-read you post then, if you mention your experience of being inconvenienced of a canceled game in the same breath of topic of people freezing to death, it is implied.

That's right, Ronen bought TWO Tesla Semi Trucks! Not one... But TWO TESLA SEMI TRUCKS!!
Ronen wanted to share his experience with you guys. How much money he had to put down to order them, and how much they actually are. How it was getting in contact with Tesla (if there was any), and WHY he decided to bite the bullet and buy two tesla semi trucks!!

Half of Texas homes are electric heat and 75% of those are resistance heat....literally the most inefficient, electricity sucking way to produce heat, so ya, there probably was a run on power during those days, lol.
Resistance heat is actually 100% efficient.
It is true that moving heat using a heat pump uses less energy per BTU. Heat pump delivers 2x to 3x the BTU per kW.
If all of TX converted it would be a huge reduction in electric demand. But electric is cheap and minimal efficiency regulation.
Winter mode, like traction control? Winter is different than summer somehow if the electric demand is the same?
