That only proves that it's non-renewables that carry the load; if that load were lighter, the fossil fuel supply would not fail as much. Moving ~10-25% of the grid to "renewables" really just means you shrank your supply by that much and increased the stress on the remaining 75-90%.
Texas doesn't plan for once-in-a-century ice storms any more than Ohio plans for once-in-a-century earthquakes. That doesn't make either state dumb. Sometimes shit happens. You clean up and get on with your life.
It's actually mostly the fault of central planning not expecting a larger than normal demand increase. An additional 30000 Mw/h of demand over what they planned for. In addition to that, wind power supplied about half of what it was expected. Roughly 11000 Mw/h less than expected. Not expecting a once in a century cold week and non-reliable renewables were responsible.
Not to the extent of this winter. Temperatures have not been this low, for as low for as long, or as much snow since the 1940s. Nor did it have rolling blackouts state-wide for days in 2011 either. So, no, not the same problem in 2011.
Force majeure letters going out everywhere. I'm sitting here with a gas scheduler in my living room and they are sending out notices that they cannot deliver because the counter-party declared a force majeure and is not delivery. So basically, the Henry Hub ain't flowing for many.
It's funny because it really isn't renewables responsible for Texas freezing.
It's partially renewables.
Look at his history, he seems to be a shill just looking to stir up shit.
His comments have already proved he doesn't have a clue.
lol says the other Shill backing him up everywhere. Your history reads just like his. So much so, you might be an alt.
Here to gasligjt and stir shit up.
You would have better luck on Reddit with the rest of the idiots.
Yes, but windmills are actually responsible for a smaller proportion of blackouts than their proportion of the grid from what I've seen.

is it the ccp on the gridlines?
It's Texans cheaping out on winterization and refusing to connect their grid to other states that could help them because muh profits
Texas.
Winterization.
Do you see the issue here?

Its cause the fed grid is compromised by China and has insane regulations.
They do need to winterize their grid though and get rid of the reliance on windmill garbage.
Thanks for the explanation!

Sounds like you might know more than most in this thread. What's your take?
Yes
