Wash Post admits reality: ‘Amid explosive demand, America is running out of power’ – U.S. ‘power grid’ being pushed ‘to the brink. Utilities can’t keep up’ – ‘It is staggering’ – But WaPo frets energy shortage ‘threatens to stifle the transition to cleaner energy’
Washington Post’s is concerned that this power shortage “threatens to stifle the transition to cleaner energy, as utility executives lobby to delay the retirement of fossil fuel plants and bring more online.”
“When you look at the numbers, it is staggering,” said Jason Shaw, chairman of the Georgia Public Service Commission, which regulates electricity. “It makes you scratch your head and wonder how we ended up in this situation.
Media finally gets it! ‘Duke Energy is transitioning away from coal. It means power bills are becoming more expensive’
Marc Morano comment: Duke Energy spokesman calls gutting reliable coal power — “improvements” to the grid. Yet they are virtually signaling to political mandates for Net Zero. As utilities close down reliable fossil fuel energy generation, they claim unspecified “benefits” to the “transitions.” In the video, Tesla home generator batteries are touted for the inevitable blackouts coming. Ideologies, politicians, activists, and colluding corporations and utilities are monkeying around with our once reliable grid due to climate politics. Then they offer some customer ‘rebates,’ ‘incentives’, & ‘subsidiy’ programs that are supposed to alleviate the constantly rising energy prices. This is an insane process that needs to stop, and Duke Energy spokesmen need a remedial education on how to speak to the public and stop lying about green energy ‘improvements’ to the grid. At the same time, they collude and do their part to sabotage the grid.
