Republicans like Abbott went on Fox News and blamed windmills for the storm outage. The party is very different than they were when these projects started, when economics mattered. Texas politics may still accidentally allow a select few progressive things to happen, but the builders and owners must be extremely “friendly” and perfectly thread the needle. Oil and gas owns this state, including the windmills, probably.
