"Here is a good article showing which states have the highest CO2 emissions:

Funny that you show a map where NM and OK have the same CO2 output as TX, and the population of TX is 14 times that of NM and 7 times the population of OK.
As for solar power

"California currently has the most installed utility-scale solar capacity of any state, but Texas is catching up. California is expected to add 10 gigawatts (GW) of utility-scale solar capacity by the end of 2022, far short of what Texas is adding.
There was 2.5 GW of solar capacity installed in Texas in 2020 marked the beginning of the solar boom in the state. EIA expects another 4.6 GW of solar capacity to be added in 2021 and 5.4 GW in 2022. By the end of 2022, Texas will have 14.9 GW of installed solar capacity"

Not only will TX have more windpower than CA - by far, but we will have more solar power at the end of this year than all of CA.
"Texas Installed Over 6 GW, Becoming the Top Solar Market
Texas added 6,060 MW of solar power in 2021, which represents 25% of total capacity added during the year. Texas is the top solar market for the first time on record, while California is now in second place with 3,640 MW."
