In Texas, ERCOT issued warning after warning of the possibility of failure due to "unreliable solar and wind generation" while raising rates and asking residents to set their thermostats to 80. Yet they keep investing in renewable energy. If it's so fucking unreliable, why keep adding it to the shitty, delicate Texas grid?
It's almost like conservatives (and their corporate masters) are liars who are incapable of even slight truths.
how about (ol'reliable.jpeg) megapacks? with enough storage and solar capacity to cover surge consumption ?
