> It isn’t progress to have massive grid outages because windmills froze

How did Texans manage to screw up windmills? The ones across the lake from me work perfectly fine all winter long, despite much colder winters.

I'm guessing they cheaped out on basic preparedness measures for this sort of thing, and clearly across the whole grid, not just renewables.
