With precisely zero deaths due to radiation, given the automated plant safety systems detected that the input line for the cooling water had frozen, and automatically shut down the reactor. This was nothing short of complete success from a nuclear energy safety perspective. Also, side rant: Everyone likes to shit on Texas for not winterizing for temperatures they never used to receive (including on the country-leading wind and solar installations - Texas produces more renewable energy than any other state), but Seattle seems to gets a free pass for letting people die of heat exhaustion in that 2021 heat wave because fewer than half of residential buildings there have ANY kind of A/C system, while NYC routinely gets a pass for not having been prepared for major storm surges and deadly flooding that they never used to receive. Climate change kills no matter where you're from, nobody's got a perfect setup for this new world we're living in. Also, FWIW, even including that grid outage in Texas, Texas' grid is still far more reliable from an total system uptime percentage perspective than either interconnect is. The state with the least reliable electric grid in the country is in California.
