Could it be that PG&E’s heavy reliance on renewable energy means they don’t have the power to send when an “historic” weather event occurs?

Thus, it would not be at all surprising to learn that PG&E didn’t stop delivering power out of fear of starting fires, but because it knew it wouldn’t have power to deliver once high winds shut down all those wind turbines.

So, the transmission lines and the transformers know the difference between fossil fuel electricity and wind-farm electricity?

Fossil fuel electricity is available 24/7. Solar and wind generated depends on conditions and is not available all the time. Not as if PG&E has a giant battery the size of Fresno.
