And for those of you in Texas who were/are without power for days, Ercot did acknowledge that rotating the outages became impossible because so much generation was offline.
About 40GW of generation remains offline: 23.5 GW thermal (gas/coal), 16.5GW of renewables

The South Texas Project nuke that shut earlier in the week is ramping back up and feeding the grid again, so that is helping.
Ercot's daily forecast has load topping 62 GW today. That's about 8GW above where we are now.
Generation capacity keep climbing today, near 62GW at the moment
