Not that it takes much to trash their grid

A category 1 hurricane sneezed on Houston and I was without power for 8 days in 95 degree heat. We need to seize the power grid back from private companies and hold it in public trust.
They literally overcharged the state for emergency generators that were too big to use during the hurricane clean up, purchased from a tiny no name company, surely for kickbacks, and they made a tidy profit off it too, by like 10 percent.
And now they want to recoup costs by raising our rates.
YOU CAUSED THIS BY NOT PERFORMING VEGETATIVE MAINTENANCE TO CUT COSTS.
Btw, the CEO of CenterPointless worked for PG&E, the company that set California on fire, due to a lack of vegetative maintenance. I'm pretty sure he was their Chief financial officer.

I wonder if disused datacentres will end up being like many malls are today: dead and empty because the bubble popped and the money moved on.

That’s saying something, because it was already in rough shape
