  1. That wasn't the cause. For those that don't know, the continental US essentially has three massive power grids, one for the eastern half, one for the western half, and one for just Texas. ALL energy sources froze up (wind, coal, nuclear, and natural gas) meaning that the supply was low, and of course, demand was higher, so the supply couldn't match demand. This wouldn't have happened if Texas was connected to either the eastern or western grid because excess energy production from one area could've been sent to Texas.
