“Try producing 99% of the total power consumed by Cut and Shoot Texas with Green Sources, then we’ll talk…..”
At night Texas routinely goes nearly 100% wind powered. The only other plants on are the nukes @9% or less everything else is curtailed by law first. During the day I have seen 65% wind power in real time in the ERCOT datafeeds to those of us in the power industry. Texas has 39,000 megawatts of wind available this month demand at night drops below 30000 on the regular right as the winds howl in West Texas all night. I just looked at 0124 wind was 52% of the ERCOT grid solar plateaued out from noon till 1600 at 23% of the grid yesterday with wind at that time from 26% to 28% that means for most of the day yesterday Texas was at least 50% wind and solar.
Without industry level access one can look at the ERCOT grid dashboards for free with less detailed information.
