Wind and Solar combine for only 6%. It looks like lots of money and economic damage for little gain.
"...the whole thing is just an artifact of a shrinking economy, largely itself caused by the destructive build-out of the wind and solar facilities. They are destroying their economy, and have almost nothing to show for two decades and hundreds of billions of dollars invested in the useless wind and solar farms..."
Force unreliable and expensive “green” power on the citizens. Drive them to the point of bankruptcy, where people are living in the dark. Then claim some sort of victory from that.
Sounds like and evil leftist BS plan.

Texas Power Prices Surge 6,000% as Grid Operator Asks Residents to Reduce Energy Usage Due to ‘Low Wind Generation’

Wind power is a complete disaster
https://www.wind-watch.org/news/2010/04/08/wind-power-is-a-complete-disaster/
"There is no evidence that industrial wind power is likely to have a significant impact on carbon emissions. The European experience is instructive. Denmark, the world’s most wind-intensive nation, with more than 6,000 turbines generating 19% of its electricity, has yet to close a single fossil-fuel plant. It requires 50% more coal-generated electricity to cover wind power’s unpredictability, and pollution and carbon dioxide emissions have risen (by 36% in 2006 alone)."
Even better is more than half of Germany is non German.
"Electricity Production" is not the same as "Electricity Needs". They may be importing from EU neigobors.
1. According to the German Association of Energy and Water Industries (BDEW), the current electricity price in Germany is 31.94 cents per kWh (as of July 2021)
2. However, in summer 2022, the average price per kWh was 50 cents. Households in Germany on average paid 40.07 cents per kilowatt hour (kWh) in the second half of 2022, compared to 32.16 ct/kWh in the previous year
3. The price of electricity for households in Germany is 0.617 U.S. Dollar per kWh, which includes all components of the electricity bill such as the cost of power, distribution, and taxes.

Forests in North Carolina are being chopped down, ground up and the chips are sailed across the Atlantic to Germany where they are burned for Green Biomass Energy.
Burning forests to save the Planet.
The renewables they’re tearing down to mine the dirtiest coal known to coalmen?
Should have been obvious that the green mantra has been for some time: you will have to make do with all the green energy you can produce. Rationing is the solution.
I’ve always wondered about the effect of wind turbine use on a massive scale would do to earth’s temperature profile at the surface. Changes in normal wind patterns and possible warming of parts of the ocean, etc. Seems to me like this isn’t discussed much at all.
In tomorrow’s news: “Germany is raising taxes to cover the trillion dollar estimated cost to cleanup the global toxic waste from producing the renewable energy components like windmills and solar panels.”
Germany just shut down a wind farm and reopened a coal mine.
Manhattan Contrarian ping
Cost per kilowatt hour
Germany = 55 cents
USA = 18 cents
Any questions?
In other news, Germany dismantles its wind and solar farms to restart coal-fired energy plants.
Es ist sehr kalt im Winter
Should keep them from trying to rule the world for a while. Shitholers.
