There are more than 2 people that know that Texas's power grid is a teetering disaster waiting for the right event to crumble and break in unfixable fashion

OP asked for a secret. The Texas grid sucking is not a secret.

Fair enough. I read your other comments and my current guess is abysmal cyber security coupled with clear indications that hostile state actors are trying to fuck it up, and showing no sign of having any more trouble than would an NFL team pushing past the volunteers who have signed up to work the door at the senior center social hour

In which case if that's accurate I would say that yes that fits the brief

All the cybersecurity in the world won't matter if a handful of ~~manipulated idiots~~ people shoot a bunch of unguarded and remotely located substation transformers.
