They are in fact doing rolling "brownouts" as of a few days ago. I put it in quotes because the friend who told us about it had been without for a couple hours at that point.

This is not being done by ERCOT that manages power distribution in Texas. Your friend had a local power failure, probably caused by a downed power line.
Rolling blackouts would be documented here if they were happening: https://www.ercot.com/services/comm/mkt_notices/opsmessages
