We've had hard freezes in Kentucky too, and they caused havoc at the Marathon refinery. But there was no natural gas distribution problems because the NG industry uses natural gas to fuel their transmission equipment. There was no shortage of gasoline or fuel oil in Texas either. 3 percent of America's energy needs are supplied by renewables. A lot of that 3 % is used by Texas which has more wind turbines than any other state in the union.

Texas, with 28,843 MW of capacity, about 16.8% of the state's electricity usage, had the most installed wind power capacity of any U.S. state at the end of 2019

I created this thread because Dems are getting ready to leave NG and Nuclear out in the cold where it comes to the new US energy grid.
So if all the windmills froze (which they didn’t) that left a grid that should have been working at around 83%.  Right ? What was the problem?  Which failure was astronomically worse ?  
  Don’t ask Tucker...use those fine math skills. Big Grin 
You gonna have to do more research.
