Texas is under the energy microscope. They will be judged by their work over next 2 years.

Needs to be quicker than the next 2 years - 155 GW of solar on the ERCOT interconnect list I would rather see cancelled, but there is not going to much other generation built in the next 2 years!!! Boy are we in trouble.

Very good idea - "end state and local subsidies for all sources of energy. Then they must require renewable energy generators to pay for the costs they are imposing on the grid because of federal subsidies."

" the well-known fact that the reliability value of renewable energy declines as its grid penetration increases" - right. I wrote about this in https://alchristie.substack.com/p/the-natural-law-of-diminishing-returns? and https://alchristie.substack.com/p/solar-and-ev-saturation-point?
