A lot of fuss about the wind PTC distorting the ERCOT power market... but let's remember... the thermal/fossil plants are the power plants who bid the lowest. (hint- they are not as "dispatchable/flexible" as they claim they are). Here is Spence Power Station clearing at -$175

If Day-Ahead markets are any indication of today's real-time markets, we could have some very valuable solar hours... if you have rooftop solar, reduce your home AC usage to maximize your exports! @OctopusEnergyUS pays you 100% of the real-time price!

@ERCOT_ISO Why do we have forced outages when prices are clearing at $15 and 10GW of spare capacity.
