    It sometimes snows in Texas. Significant freezes like this should have been factored into their planning. Other states don't shut down when the temp gets below zero.
    And it wasn't 25 percent of powers loss....they all didn't quit,the ones that did accounted for about a third of the 25% total wind capacity.

    So again, what now?

    That's a significant cut in supply, especially since the demand shot up.
