Don’t blame climate for unreliable power, blame climate policies that shut down reliable power.
In recent years, Americans have experienced power shortages as a daily occurrence. Calls to reduce electricity use and the threat of frequent brownouts or blackouts.
It's an embarrassment and it's like this completely preventable.
Anti-fossil fuel politicians will blame our grid's reliability problems on “climate change,” which allegedly causes the grid to run too hot.
This is ridiculous; Countries with much higher temperatures than oursJust like Singapore, Having a reliable grid is easy.
The real cause of the reliability problem is obvious: Government-led “green energy” policy Punishing reliable fossil fuels and nuclear power while favoring unreliable solar and wind power.
Because at any given time, Solar and wind energy can approach zero, and using them to replace reliable electricity won't work, For example, during the February 2021 winter storm, Texas' solar and wind power was completely unavailable, but they lost tens of billions of dollars that could have been used for reliable, resilient power.
Biden-Harris EPA has been at war with reliable power plantsstarting with the fact that our grid relies on coal-fired power plants for one-sixth of its reliable power.
they are doing this although Electricity demand continues to increase From the data center and electric vehicles.
The Biden-Harris EPA’s recent power plant rule will not only Close important coal-fired power plants fasterbut they will also Prevent new natural gas plants from replacing them.
