28 gigawatt windmill capacity, 3 gigawatt output last Monday, 2/15. The average for a February day is 9 GW.

I have a screen cap from ERCOT’s real time status page for, IIRC, Wednesday AM 2/17, where they were getting a whopping 0.65 GW from wind.

The average for a February day is 9 GW.The ERCOT "dependable" rating for wind in winter is 7 gigawatts. Granted, there were big problems with natural gas deliveries in last week's conditions to plants that ERCOT counts on for more than 50% of winter capacity in TX.
Failure all around.
