But this failure is not just about an extreme weather event. It's actually more about the failure of those in charge of the grid to prepare for a storm they knew was coming.
Which again goes back to the ridiculousness of twitter. It's the social media sound bite. Pot shots. Worthless. [Reply]

They had wind turbines freeze up . . .
Yes on the reason they didn't have capacity. They didn't properly gear up for it as the capacity is/was there to provide enough power.
This event far surpasses the cold snap from 2011. [Reply]

My god the stupidity of this post. Renewables are not the answer if you can't store the power.
Until that happens generation must come from reliable sources. [Reply]
