But ERCOT energy is also cheaper than the US national average. The reason that 25% of global PVC production was ultimately sourced from Texas was probably linked to those power costs.

I'd rather my regulators copied ERCOT than what they are actually doing; I pay a lot for power because of serial gold-plating of infrastructure. Then maybe Australia'd be able to afford to manufacture something in globally significant quantities.

Not "fixing" things can lead to better outcomes for most people.
