In a press conference Sunday evening, Austin Mayor Kirk Watson said he did not think ERCOT would need to implement rolling blackouts. “ERCOT is indicating that it has enough reserves,” Watson said. “But we need to take the precautions that ERCOT is asking us to take.” “If [rolling blackouts] happen, it is a decision that is made by ERCOT,” he continued. “Austin Energy and the city of Austin have to follow and comply with the decision that ERCOT makes under those circumstances.” Stay informed about Austin and Central Texas news, weather, investigations and sports on our website and social media: https://www.kxan.com/ https://www.youtube.com/c/KXANAustinNews?sub_confirmation=1 https://www.facebook.com/KXANnews/ https://twitter.com/KXAN_News https://www.instagram.com/kxan_news
