Energy independence in light of unstable power grids and shrinking generation capacity is a good thing.

Producing more energy on military bases will serve their national security mission by making them less dependent on the commercial power grid, officials said. They planned to announce a goal of generating 3 gigawatts of electricity — enough to power 750,000 homes — from renewable sources such as solar and wind on Army, Navy and Air Force bases.

I agree. And the unstable power grids and shrinking capacity are because....of the EPA.

Solar and wind are not going to make our military stronger. That is absurd.
