shouldn't there be an abundance of energy if its hotter?
it's texas, their power grid doesn't work.
The Texan power grid works fine. It only has problems when it's hot or cold.
The system works great all year round but what it delivers is not electricity...
which is probably why i think it doesn't work.
Because yknow, texas, never gets hot... Or cold...
How is that supposed to work?
Temperature is the measure of average thermal kinetic energy of particles...
