No, Texas really doesn't.
The article:
> Texas has produced more gigawatt-hours of electricity from renewable sources than any other state for several years running
That's an absolute number, and this is just another version of all heatmaps are just population maps[1].
If we look at percentage of energy from renewables … Texas lags the national average, and is way down the list. The top is Vermont.[2]
(They're not first in terms of per-capita, either, but I do wish that column was in the table. I don't exactly know where they are in the ranking, other than not first.)
