In this episode of Energy Crossroads, we are joined by Michael Jewell, the Managing Attorney of Jewell and Associates. Michael is a government affairs professional with more than 30 years of experience in and with Texas Government. He helps national and international corporations and organizations shape public policy positions with state legislators, key executive officials, and state regulatory agencies, including testifying before state legislative committees.

We discuss a subject that is still a ‘hot’ topic for many Texans: the Great Texas Black Out (aka Winter Storm Uri), that drastically impacted the state in February 2021. What have we learned about what actually happened, what caused the problems with the power grid, and how can prepare for an event like this if it were to happen again?

We also explore the concept of ‘energy burden’ as it relates to low-income communities, and the steps being taken to deliver affordable power to the people who need it the most.
