It amazes me that even in Texas we rely so heavily on green energy that its causes us power supply issues.
That isn't why our grid is having problems.

That is an email from ERCOT that I quoted in my post.

First, stop calling that shite "green" energy. It's not.
Second, having 1/5th of power generation capacity tied to something we can't control is absolutely a large factor. Drive by the coal plant on 71 in between Houston and Austin, and you'll see a pile of fuel (coal) 8 or 9 stories high for everyone to charge their Teslas off of. That pile of coal doesn't take the afternoon off because of a lack of wind.
