Texas invested heavily in wind back in the day before Republicans went off the deep end. Rick Perry as governor lead an effort to use eminent domain to take land and build high voltage transmission lines between West Texas where the wind blows and Central/East Texas where the people live. Then wind companies started approaching land owners with contracts for guaranteed income and projects started going up all over the place.
Now almost a quarter of Texas's energy production is wind, and Texas produces over a quarter of the entire US's total wind energy output, in spite of the state political environment. Solar power is following the same trajectory, even though the current government has been trying to favor natural gas.
At 6pm today, per ERCOT almost 60% of Texas's total generation is from wind and solar, and another 8% from nuclear. It's like this pretty much every day, and solar's going to keep rising rapidly
Not sure how you can look at utility-scale solar generation capacity quintupling over 5 years and think that's not a story
