Another Texan here.. yes, we're #1 for wind and I think #2 for solar so obviously we blow up their assertions here. My only theory is that we have a strong backstop of natural gas that serves as the foundation which we can (usually) fall back on. If California is working to go wholly renewables without having a fossil fuel-based Plan B, then they're starting with different design constraints and would likely have a different result. If that is the case, it would make for a much more convincing article and "not only renewables" is a more interesting discussion.
