This is an AP article. They love to bash Texas. It may wake people up to wind and solar being okay as supplements to a good coal burning power plant. Abbott needs to address what he can. The Texas Governor is not as powerful as say the Governor of NY or CA with one party rule. What exactly could he do within his powers to change regulations? I am asking because before I cast dispersions I would like to know the answer to that.
If I have a good coal burning plant, why do I need overpriced and purely redundant wind and solar? Having them when they aren't needed (when in fact the price of electricity is negative) is economically pointless. They become a vanity accessory like Tesla parked in a five car garage.
