Better get those solar panels. Or a windmill or two.
renewable energy is fantasy
Prepare for the blackouts. Orwell surveillance isn’t cheap bitches.
Netherlands is rationing electricity as its overloaded power grid buckles .

Soon on MSNBC panels:
With the inflation and economic collapse caused by the tariffs, and the out of pocket costs of minimal medical care caused by cutbacks to the needy, most people will be too weak from malnutrition from high food prices to be able to reach up to turn on the light switch.
BS. My electric rate never changes much. I live in TN.
Fortunately I don’t get a lot of direct sunlight. Summer bill is around $120 a month with the ac set at 69 all day and night.
Winter is opposite. Pushes to $175 average.
The author buried the lede on the why.
I'm set.
Pennsylvania Ping!
Please ping me with articles of interest.
FReepmail me to be added to the list.
...and the BEST PART is that, by voting for these America-hating Leftists, they think they’re ‘sticking it to Trump’.
No surprise other than Kalifornia isn’t on the list.
There was a great thread earlier today on the virtues of the potato. Glad to see it energizing further praise.
Our bills in AZ are the opposite. In June, July, August & September we pay between $350-500 for power with the thermostat set at 75 degrees. In winter we pay under $100 for electric with a gas bill of about $50.
In our current crisis, government is not the solution. Government is the problem. —Ronald Reagan
This soaring cost is only going to go up more as subsidized, unreliable, inefficient and very costly wind and solar are replaced in a panic by natural gas fired turbines that can be brought on quickly and incrementally. This convenience and speed comes at great cost in what is a seller’s market for gas turbines. Yet another high cost seller’s market has been created by government interference. Thanks to bidet and all the net zero green weenies.
You and i paid our tax dollars to get in this bad place and we will pay dearly in electric rates because of mismanagement and government interference.
And those coal fired plants were designed to last 30 years and usually exceeded 40 years via life extension programs.
GA just opened the 1st nuke plant in the US since 2016
Maybe the 13 moron states should stop voting stupid and start fixing their energy grid.
Democrat voter: Why are my electric bills so high?
Democrat politician: Climate Change is causing wild weather swings.
Democrat voter: We must do more to fight Climate Change!
Sigh.
Multimillion dollar solar project gets reduced to a heap of toxic rubble by one single hail storm.. Nebraska.. 14,000 solar panels.. Not recyclable / have to bury it like windmill blades.
