Are you saying that wind and solar are inherently more capable, in all varying conditions, of powering the grid at a more reliable rate?
Pretty sure he’s just saying that all 6 of the plants that went offline today were gas-fired, and that wind and solar had nothing to do with it.

Possibly so, but he also threw renewables in there at the end. Which makes me think he was touting renewables.
For the record, I'm all for renewables as a supplemental source. The problem I have is that we are closing on demand plants and replacing them with renewables.
