OGT Nat Gas spot went from $3 to over $300. Wholesale power went from around $1,000/MWh to over $9,000/MWh.

Texas wind generation is down about 60% this week. Solar is down to nearly 0. Coal is already maxed so that left it up to Nat Gas to make up the demand, which it mostly did, but at huge cost. Now Nat Gas supply is limited, so rolling blackouts.
That is an outstanding graph filled with interesting information. Thanks for posting!
