What is the cost of renewables? 7-10 x cost of conventional sources? Plus they are not dependable so you still have to have conventional capacity to back it up?

Michigan? I guess a few frozen bodies is worth pushing a political agenda.

Exactly.

Wind power costs 8.2 cents per kWh.

Natural gas costs only 6.3 cents per kWh.
