You're welcome. Coal power is extremely pollutive. It's 2022, not 1920.


EDIT:


Underlying this vexing outlook is the grid's transition from fossil-fuel power to renewable energy. Power lost from retiring coal plants is exceeding the supply gained by new wind and solar farms.

"This is a harbinger of things to come," said David Sapper, director of intelligence for MISO markets at Philadelphia-based Customized Energy Solutions, which analyzes regional U.S. power grids. "These type of conditions could prevail for many years."

Maybe....just maybe they should have converted more of those to gas as they did with others.......no lets just shut off the power...typical lib idiocy

More like "Blackouts.....you shoulda fixed your grid 10 years ago!!!"

GOP ignores a problem, the problem comes and bites them in the ass. I saw the same thing with the Texas blizzard last winter.

Grid was fine.....you seem to like denying reality when facts are inconvenient

No commie, you filth should have kept your hands off it.

What kind of "grid fix" can compensate for a 90%+ baseload power plant being replaced by
unreliable wind and solar?

Screw em. They should be out hoeing the corn by hand anyway.

I expect them here. Not because of "peak demand", but because the more of our old Frankenstein era grid they replace with high tech modern components, the more often we have outages, and for longer.

I'm not an engineer, I have no idea.

Coal is much cleaner than it used to be due to the clean air act of 52 years ago.

Wait, what? Kinda weird to see a GOPer say government regulation and oversight is a good thing, but whatever.

Is that what they've done in Texas?

Again do I have to repeat my self that I am a Free Thinking INDEPENDENT never been a republican left the Democrat party in the early 1990's.

Your ignorance about Coal power pollution history isn't helping you,

So how many wind mills within view of your home can I put you down for?

From which university did you get your science credentials?

He wants 100 and promises 10% to the big guy

He's a dick but he's not wrong about Texas....The solar and wind tycoons there have something in common.....None are dems and hold all kinds of sway over ERCOT due to the graft they provide to Wheel's gop political machine.

Hell, they lost output at a bunch of NG-fired plants due to poor management practices (in favor of the W&S tycoons) just the other day.

It's a good thing for you that Bob the Fake Mexican is too fucking stupid to expose the shady workings of ERCOT.....He would win in a walk once Texans found out how they are being fucked-over.
