Another option is working with other states to share energy, in the event of power failures. Texas stands out as not having any such arrangements due to its independent power grid.
The most hilarious thing about the blackouts is seeing Republican officials in Texas' oil dominant economy trying to spin this as the fault of a yet to be enacted Green New Deal, wind turbines, environmentalism, AOC or Democratic governors.

Texas winter storm causes energy market rally
VIDEO SIGN OUT
Now that the lights are back on in Texas, the state has to figure out whoâs going to pay for the energy crisis that plunged millions into darkness last week. It will likely be ordinary Texans.
The price tag so far: US$50.6 billion, the cost of electricity sold from early Monday, when the blackouts began, to Friday morning, according to BloombergNEF estimates. That compares with US$4.2 billion for the prior week.

Texans will pay for decades as crisis tacks billions onto electricity bills

Now that the lights are back on in Texas, the state has to figure out who’s going to pay for the energy crisis that plunged millions into darkness last week. It will likely be ordinary Texans.
The price tag so far: $50.6 billion, the cost of electricity sold from early Monday, when the blackouts began, to Friday morning, according to BloombergNEF estimates. That compares with $4.2 billion for the prior week.
Some of those costs have already fallen onto consumers as electricity customers exposed to wholesale prices wracked up power bills as high as $8,000 last week. Other customers won’t know what they’re in for until they receive their gas and power bills at the end of the month. Ultimately, the financial pain will probably be shared by ratepayers and taxpayers alike, said Michael Webber, a professor at the University of Texas at Austin and chief science officer for French power company Engie SA.

System operators work in the command center of the Electric Reliability Council of Texas in Taylor. About 90 percent of Texas' electric load is managed by ERCOT.
Jason Hartkemeyer couldn’t count on his power staying on for more than a couple of hours at a time for three freezing nights this week forcing the Cypress resident to crank up his portable generator and ignite a gas fireplace to keep his family warm during this week’s historic winter storm.
More than 740 miles away in El Paso, Kitty Schild and her neighbors were comfortably warm during the cold snap as the power never wavered. The longtime El Paso judge only heard of the power crisis in the rest of Texas when a friend in San Francisco texted her Tuesday to ask if she was OK.
