Maybe they're an especially egregious example because of how fucked up their power grid is, but odds are it's not gonna be that much better when the rest of the country gets their own unique climate disaster.

We did have some wind turbines freeze but a, that doesn’t account for the catastrophic level of failure bc we still mostly get our energy from gas plants like you said. And b, it’s because the wind generators weren’t properly winterize bc texas skimps out on infrastructure any chance it gets. They work fine in other colder states and in Europe we just purposely didn’t prepare for this, I’m not entirely sure they didn’t consciously do it so they could politicize it like this when it inevitably hit the fan.
