Re:Ercot nearly at capacity for Texas power grid by nikisweeting on Monday February 15, 2021 @11:56AM (#26144474)
If anyone is curious about this HVDC line and the Quebec grid in general I gave a small talk about it ;)

It's one of the only multi-terminal HVDC lines in the world, most of the others are just point-to-point.

They also literally short out the power lines with DC to warm them up and melt the ice off during ice storms, pretty crazy stuff.
