Don’t confuse capacity and produced volume of power consumption. Wind and solar is 25% of consumption not capacity. Wind is 31,000 megawatts of capacity. Last night 42,000 megawatts of gas coal and nuclear dropped off line and there was still 59,000 megawatts of.capacity of which only 4000 was wind and zero was solar.
"The surge in demand during the storm outpaced the grid operator's highest estimate of just over 67,000 megawatts needed for an extreme peak load. And 34,000 megawatts were kicked offline, diminishing supply, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas said."
How does one "scientifically" manage the system if the measures don't match?
