Okay, you've got a fixation on wind power, so keep blowing that hot air. Shame you can't blow it into my living room.
In the meantime, I hope this state can winterize their natural gas plants, which your link shows should be more than half our power source. Not so much when the machinery is frozen, it turns out.
- edbob 6y agoI actually support wind, and I think that it's great that ERCOT leads in wind generation. Hopefully they just need to do a better job at weather-proofing in the future. What I have a fixation on is false claims that wind generation did not contribute to shortfalls. Failing to produce power by design is not a very good defense of wind power, while the out-of-context quotes that wind "exceeded expectations" are conspicuously missing any details of just how woefully low those expectations were.
