How can the Southern power grid handle months of blistering heat with everyone blasting air conditioners, but can’t handle two days below freezing?

Can you cite some source that the “Southern power grid […] can’t handle two days below freezing” ?
I have not heard of any issues with the power grid. I have only heard of the usual issues with ice-laden trees crashing into power infrastructure.
(Of course, Texas is its own special snowflake due to poor oversight; the Texas grid is isolated and lacks redundancy and winterization.)
