Now this is what the biased MSM said about Texas blackout.
"But wind energy and other renewable sources make up only a fraction of the power generation in Texas,
which relies mostly on thermal energy, such as oil and natural gas, to power the state."
So what is a "fraction" from wind turbines?
Woodfin said wind shutdowns accounted for less than 13% of the outages.
13% is only a fraction for sure but is more than 10%
Coupled with then the increased demand on the other 87% electricity generation plants that was the cause.
We'll read more about the dependency on renewables causing shortages in the future.

Fact check: Frozen wind turbines don't deserve all the blame for Texas blackouts
Wind turbines produce a fraction of Texas' power and aren't winterized. Accusations that frozen windmills are to blame for blackouts lack context.
