Omg jackass—-everything shut down. Wind, solar, nuclear, NG! What about this don’t you understand. It all froze— nothing was working.


Don’t take this the wrong way. But do you know how to read a standard graph and recognize tends?

The only thing that completely shut down was renewables. And this coincided with a reduction in energy output from NG and a spike in demand.

There’s no way to argue with 18 different ppl at the same time. I never once made a claim that renewables are the savior of society. Renewables were taken offline much sooner than all other systems. That was accounted for—shite got real when nuclear plants and NG plants had to shut down. Renewables had absolutely nothing to do with the current state of where Texas is. Infrastructure Preparedness is to blame.
