“Has anyone checked to see how well these turbines would hold up if a category 4 or 5 hurricane blew through?”

Who needs hurricanes when they have multiple noreasters every winter?

As if they were ever viable.

I was so hoping we would see bright shiny new turbines spinning in the sea breeze until the salt and rust turned them into stationary statues symbolizing the insanity of green energy.

Texas showed a couple of winters previous that over-dependence on wind power would not work. The turbines froze up and wouldn't 'turb'.

That per'turb'ed a lot of Texans who were huddling in their total electric homes which were without electric power. Some of the smarter ones (mostly old-timers familiar with Texas winters) had gas/kerosene/multifuel generators.

Don’t be fooled - they all knew it was NEVER viable. But they needed to show a good price and relatively cheap power, or it never would have gotten off of the ground.

Now they’re far along and the planet will quickly burn up if they’re not allowed to finish (kind of like ‘too big to fail’). So, guess what, they’ll reach a ‘deal’ and the price of power will jump, yet again, for the people who thought renewable power would be ‘free’.

OR, they could have just left open the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Station for another 50 years and saved the money on the ugly, expensive, and inefficient wind mills.

A lower standard of living is one thing but it is time to build those coal power plants before people die for lack of heat.

So we crippled one source of energy while promising a green source and now we.have

no source.

Let’s go brandon.

( looks like Russia and CCP got their money’s worth with Biden and rogue ilk )

It never was viable just like all democrat party policies.

1600 Mega Watts

the average American home uses ~880 kWh per month.

the whole solar farm was built to supply enough energy for 2000 homes. that’s it. 2000.

cost? at least $1 billion.

2,000 homes ... $1 billion.

that’s $500,000 PER HOUSE.

the insanity should be obvious ... yet no one did the basic math?!

WTF
