Wind power is failing Texas again as output drops to 10% in heat wave | Eastern NC Now

Gov. Cooper and the RINOs have set NC on same insane path

ENCNow

With a heat wave engulfing the state and demand for electricity very high, wind energy is failing Texas, with output of its wind turbines dropping to only ten percent of capacity.  Low wind conditions have rendered weather-dependent wind energy very fickle when the state needs it the most.  Texas depends on wind energy more than most states.  Wind and solar also failed the state not long ago in a cold snap.  ERCOT, the state power grid operator is asking people to cut energy use to avoid blackouts.

One would think that NC's politicians would learn from the history of skyrocketing prices and crashing reliability from dependence on weather dependent wind and solar in places like Texas, Australia, and Germany, but they did not.  RINO legislative leaders Phil Berger and Tim Moore pushed NC's Green New Deal to go down the same failing path as Texas, caving in like cowards to the position of far left Governor Roy Cooper.  We have the RINOs as well as Democrats to blame for putting our state on this path.
