Those Dem & greenie media efforts to shift the onus away from the frozen wind turbines has been totally debunked. Similar conditions of too much reliance on wind & solar has led to California power shortages and the dangers of insufficient supply including the prospects of rolling blackouts. At times California has even paid other states to take excess [mostly solar] power, to correct stress on their grid. Ordinarily excess power can be sold, but at times they were paying others to take the power from their grid. An irony going in the wrong direction. Reliable power requires it be dialed up when required and needed. And on some rare occasions to be dialed back. Then there's the problem of frying birds to death, and chopping up eagles and other raptors. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Robert and Tom: 2021 Texas power crisis "State officials including Republican governor Greg Abbott initially blamed the outages on frozen wind turbines and solar panels. However, data showed that failure to winterize power sources, primarily those of natural gas, had caused the grid failure. Texas's power grid has long been separate from the two major national grids to avoid federal oversight; this disconnection made it difficult for the state to import electricity from other states during the crisis. Deregulation of its electricity market beginning in the 1990s resulted in competition in wholesale electricity prices, but also cost cutting for contingency preparation." |
