Due to the extreme winter storm, “nearly half of Texas’ installed wind power generation capacity has been offline because of frozen wind turbines in West Texas,” the Austin American-Statesman reported. The wind farms can generate up to 25,100 megawatts of energy, but turbines making up 12,000 megawatts of that amount had frozen over by Sunday. Read more…
