ERCOT Power Outage Lawsuits in Texas

Power Grid Failure in Texas

ERCOT (Electric Reliability Council of Texas) and power companies throughout the state failed the people of Texas during one of the most vicious natural disasters of the last century. As temperatures dipped into the single digits, people found themselves without power to stay warm. This led to significant property damage as well as injury and death.

Over the last few weeks, electricity blackouts have left much of Texas in the cold. Pipes froze only to bust when the weather got above zero, and water flooded homes, causing millions in property damage. Without heat and water, people were left in the dark and thirsty.

Money lost is only the beginning of the problems. Many people have lost loved ones, paying the ultimate sacrifice, due to the failure of ERCOT, manager of the state’s main electric grid, and power companies that ignored repeated warnings about the state’s insufficient power infrastructure.

Compensation for Property Damages & Injuries

Many people have extreme damages to their homes, businesses, vehicles, and more due to being without power for so long. The conditions led to injuries and significant loss in many ways.

ERCOT and other power companies knew or should have known that the electric infrastructure was too weak to handle situations like this.
