Household electricity bills have increased by 10% since Donald Trump re-entered the White House

[AntonToo]

Biden had 4 years to drive up energy costs.

So your explaination of Trump driving up costs is...Biden driving up costs.

Right?

 

[Independent thinker]

You also don't need me to be able to fact check your claims...because you know you are full of crap.

And I know that you will deny any and all facts which don't fit your narrative.

 

[jbrownson0831]

Household electricity bills have already shot up nearly 10% since Trump took office, and a study by Climate Power and Energy Innovation warns they could climb even higher if his policies keep gutting clean energy.
When Trump takes money away from clean energy, it means fewer wind turbines, solar panels, and energy-saving programs get built. That makes us keep using more expensive old stuff, like coal and gas, which cost more to run when fuel prices go up. With less cheap clean energy in the mix, power companies have to charge you more for the electricity coming into your house...so your bill gets bigger.

Hmmm, mine is down during that time peiod, Lunatic from Lithonia....maybe you should stop plugging in your "toys" and use the battery option instead.

 

[jbrownson0831]

this idiot did not read that the time period of the study was January to May. Yet he still chose to embarrass himself by talking about the summer.

Speaking of idiots who can't read.....what does 312-226 mean, Wacko from Warner Robins?

 

[jbrownson0831]

i’m trying to find where it says summer in the title of my thread. It doesn't. No amount of gaslighting is going to erase your stupidity.

You’re talking about gas price rising in the summer and this study is not about the summer. Moron.
you’re the only vegetable brain who thinks the summer occurs from January to May

Speaking of vegetable brains, you remind me of a turnip, Atheist from Augusta....

 

[Marener]

And you are fact deniers. Anything that doesn't fit your narrative is called a lie.

Fact is that electricity prices are up like 6% or more year over year.

That doesn’t fit your narrative so you won’t acknowledge it.

Unless you’re going to start posting photos of your utility bills, your claims are unprovable and irrelevant.

Biden had 4 years to drive up energy costs.
Germany has 40% renewables and the most expensive energy in Europe.
Spain just had a nationwide black out caused by dependence on renewables.
The future demands of AI and server banks can never be met by green energy

The blackout in Spain was caused by conventional power source generators not creating enough electricity quickly enough to meet the spike in demand, not the renewables, but yes, renewables are wanting. I think Iceland maybe is the only place that does it well because they are small and use the heat from their volcanoes to generate power now.

The blackout was caused by too much renewable energy that cant meet demand. Spain is now looking at nuclear power.

Right?

Biden controlled energy for 4 years and his policy was to increase fossil fuel costs so we would all drive EV cars. How did that work out. Trump has been in office for 7 months. Get real lame excuses and blaming Trump for Bidens senile stupidity hasnt worked so well has it

"
She said the partly state-owned grid operator, Red Eléctrica, had miscalculated the power capacity needs for that day, explaining that the "system did not have enough dynamic voltage capacity".

The regulator should have switched on another thermal plant, she said, but "they made their calculations and decided that it was not necessary".

Spain's government blames huge blackout on grid regulator and private firms

Spain and Portugal were disconnected from Europe's electricity grid for hours in April, causing chaos.

These are incentives for new construction which haven’t kicked in yet. There’s no way this could be responsible for higher rates yet.

Similarly, electric utilities are under commissions that approve all rate hikes.
There is no way that any Trump EOs signed in March or April affected electric rates by May or June.

So I guess that means that he’s totally failing to do what he said and all he’s done is make the problem worse.

Trump has already put the solution in use. Stop all green energy subsidies. Increase LNG and fossil fuels and build nuclear power. He has removed the permit barriers and red tape. A nuclear reactor can be built in 3-5 years. Its going to take time Biden had 4 years to damage our energy grid.

That LNG is going overseas.

He actually destroyed the government office that made loan guarantees for nuclear power. No one is going to build a nuclear reactor if they actually think cheap LNG is going to undercut them.

With regard to electricity...
The Unites States has -no- way forward other than nuclear power.

Electric Bills Are Up 10% So Far This Year—Why They Could Keep Getting Costlier​

Topline​

Electricity bills have increased almost 10% since the start of the year and could rise another $170 per year for households by 2035 thanks to the repeal of clean energy tax credits, new tariffs and rapid expansion of electricity-hungry data centers to fuel a boom in artificial intelligence, multiple reports have shown.
Electricity Prices Are Rising Thanks To Tariffs, Clean Energy Cuts, AI

Sure. But like 5 orders of magnitude less energy dense.
It certainly has its applications.
