“But early on Monday, ERCOT said extreme weather conditions caused many generating units – across all fuel types – to trip offline and become unavailable.”

” . . . across all fuel types . . . “ - why would the extreme weather in question shut down nukes or gas-fired turbines?

Nukes and gas-fired steam turbines - frozen cooling towers.

Gas-fired turbines - probably no problems.

across all fuel types is more PC, liberal wording garbage. .. reality is the wind mills and solar panels are frozen, covered in snow & ice / dead.
