@docdieterlen Certainly a best kept secret, especially if Texas’s ERCOT wants to remain separate from the national grid.

@odaraia making the whole state a Colossal wind/solar microgrid would in fact allow TX to both remain disconnected to other states and keep the lights on 🙃

The economics and geography of clean energy is so much more complicated than people assume. Several red states are wind and solar leaders - lots of rural land, v few limits on what can be done with it. Plus the largest cities in red states are often far more blue.
