Nuclear went offline due to faulty metering equipment, was manually checked and brought back online.
Some of the windmills froze, while others did not, and yes that was due to a lack of winterization (despite repeated recommendations to do so).
But natural gas comprises more than 50% of our power sources, and was also not winterized, and we lost a huge percentage of our power as a result.
So among our un-winterized power sources, natural gas fared the worst, which is relevant when deciding, for example, where to spend winterization money in the years to come.
