The governor has given the utility until the end of July to submit plans to protect the power supply in future stormsThe majority of Houston outages following Hurricane Beryl should be fixed within the next two days, the city’s main utility company said Monday. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott threatened to punish CenterPoint Energy even after the lights come back.
CenterPoint's spokespersons did not immediately return an email seeking comment Monday. The company has defended its response and pace of restoring outages. Houston-area residents have sweltered in heat and humidity, stood in long lines for gas, food and water, and trekked to community centers for air conditioning. Hospitals have seen a spike in patients with heat-related illnesses and carbon monoxide poisoning caused by improper use of home generators.
Hirs said Abbott and other leaders who are solely zeroing in on the utility after Beryl are looking for a scapegoat. In a report filed May 1, CenterPoint said it had spent nearly $35 million on tree removal and trimming in 2023. It said it would target efforts this year across more than 3,500 miles of its estimated 29,000 miles of overhead power lines in 2024.
