The main cause for the Texan power outages was problems with the distribution of natural gas, which reduced the gas plant output by up to 26 GW.
That dwarfs the 4GW loss (max) from iced wind turbines. But hey, they got the blame.

By some estimates, nearly half of the state’s natural gas production has screeched to a halt due to the extremely low temperatures, while freezing components at natural gas-fired power plants have forced some operators to shut down.
