You realize all 6 of the plants that went offline were natural gas plants? But tell me more about renewables.

Here’s the “more” that I’ll say about “renewables”. Notice that I advocated for investment in nuclear and natural gas.

If more focus (and money) was on natural gas and not on wind and solar, perhaps those plants could be better maintained.

None of your snark changes the FACT that wind and solar remain unreliable, inconsistent, too expensive, and a DRAIN on energy production resources.

ETA: AND don’t forget the FACT that wind and solar are worse for the environment than natural gas.
