I have a snapshot of a chart from ERCOT, but I can’t paste it here. Here’s a link showing that as wind and solar dropped off, NatGas picked up the slack, but they only had enough for about five days.
"Natural gas wells in the region have been affected by freezing temperatures that have disrupted production, and pipeline compressors have lost power."
Did you read the article? if the compressors loose power then it doesn't matter how much storage we have.
5, maybe six days worth.
Was that sufficient? Obviously not.
Where is your source in this?
Good question. I included a link.
Just click on my text / post. It opens up.
Yeah so.... that link doesn't say anything about storage of NG.
Did you read my title, and how I dissed the article?

If you want nuclear power move to Fukushima.
Thanks for proving my point about the unreliability of NatGas
