Some good Bsky posts with graphs can't be ported to here without PITA. I'm going to try the 'embed' option below but I doubt it'll work

In the twelve months to March 2026, Texas solar (68.3 TWh) produced more electricity than coal (66.8 TWh).
Just five years ago, coal was still more than 7x larger than solar.<br><br><a href="https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:lcdtgnjj4ykeg62nttb6esp5/post/3mmtn3vvkis2z?ref_src=embed">[image or embed]</a></p>— Nicolas Fulghum (<a href="https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:lcdtgnjj4ykeg62nttb6esp5?ref_src=embed">@nicolasfulghum.bsky.social</a>) <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:lcdtgnjj4ykeg62nttb6esp5/post/3mmtn3vvkis2z?ref_src=embed">May 27, 2026 at 9:41 AM</a></blockquote><script async src="https://embed.bsky.app/static/embed.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
And wind is double that. Gas looks to be double renewables combined, which is still better than using coal
I wonder if the solar number is comprehensive or just includes utility solar. My BIL has close to 50 panels and a giant battery and lives mostly off grid in suburban Austin, including his EV. Since his solar only touches the meter when home batteries and EVs are full, there is no measure at all of that unless they are doing some estimate.
