Texan politicians didn't miss a chance to blame wind power for the outages. Unfortunately, those initial lies are still circulating. The primary cause was that the pipes supplying natural gas froze. https://www.texastribune.org/2021/02/16/texas-wind-turbines-...

The frozen pipes were a problem specifically because the wind farms weren’t producing.

Replace the wind farms with nuclear power and the problem goes away.

You back up the renewables with hydrogen-burning combined cycle plants.

A combined cycle plant costs around $1/W. A nuclear power plant costs around $10/W.

Why do you want to spend so much more money than you have to, just so you can split atoms?

France currently runs its nuclear plants at 60% due to maintanance and heat. In the last years the amount of times they had to shut down a nuclear power plant due to to warm cooling water has increased. Given where global warming is going that will happen more and more.
