Electricity at critical supply level in Permian Basin
A Texas Electric Service Co. spokesman warns that winter subfreezing temps and holiday heating keep Permian Basin electricity at a critical point. About 500 Ector County homes lost power due to overloaded circuits before Christmas, with hundreds more outages in Odessa areas. Continuous strain from increased heating and cooking demands, plus curtailed natural gas supplies and maintenance shutdowns, sustains tight regional reserves.
