Anyone heard anything about centerpoint doing rolling blackouts? Is that why people who always had power are now losing it?

No. Rolling blackouts are grid-level events (but are executed locally, at the direction of the grid manager). These are highly localized in order to let crews continue repair work.

They are nearing the stage where the easy repairs are done and are now dealing with more localized issues. In order for the linemen to safely repair other, they may need to shut yours off. I don’t think they are doing rolling blackouts, just trying to repair the damaged lines (quite slowly I may add)

Yeah, I believe that about the ones in our neighborhhood that never lost power , then went down for several hours before we all came back online. But the townhomes near us never lost power until Thurday and they are still out. One of their board members is who call Liz Fletchers office and was told rolling blackout were happening and msybe that was it. ( obviously not, you don’t leave people out of power 48 hours for a rolling blackout).

Feel for the linemen.
