So the feds say wind beats coal. Well, okay. Sure. And now a word from George Carlin:

Whats going to happen when they figure out all those windmills are slowing down the earths rotation and are the real cause of global warming because days are getting longer????
They just finished building a brand new coal plant in China... By this time next week or the week thereafter, another will be brought on line, and another, and another and so on, and so forth.
Yep, if we have a hurricane every month, we’d be set....
What a load of nonsense!
Until they deal with the ENERGY STORAGE issue, the amount of power generated (whenever the wind feels like blowing) is next to meaningless.
Coal deal with storage by having HUGE HEAPS of coal on site.
Did I mention coal fired PowerPoint have a much much longer life and are cheaper to operate than wind power? They also have less of a carbon footprint and less hazardous waste?
That would be an EPA ruling. Reckon it is unconsitutional.

Now let’s talk about cost...because IIRC, the USSC just said it had to be considered...by eperts....not political gurus..
When you physically stop/force the non use of coal then it’s not a leap to think that wind or something would create more energy. Fake economy.
Too bad that wind turbine farms cause climate change (downwind).
Oh well.
What the graphs show is not a huge increase in wind generated power but the decimation of th domestic coal power industry being replaced by natural gas. Our coal is now being shipped to China
I’m sorry, but that looks more like coal is going down than wind is going up. Is this reflecting all the coal plants govenors are shutting down for their green religion?
I’m fine with all of the above. But don’t burn any bridges.
Plus causing more wind storms too right?
Sherwood News? Never heard of them. Went to their website to find out and the site never stops loading. No contact or about page.
we live “out of town...a bit”. there is nothing but forest and small lakes for 100 miles in any direction. the ONLY wind here is the hot air from our local politicians and they don’t create anything but stife and deficits. progressive liberals aren’t just ignorant, they are purely STUPID.
