Teddy Brosevelt Show | Episode #11 - Texas Electric Grid in Danger of Crashing Due to No Wind
from The Teddy Brosevelt Show · host Teddy Brosevelt
Designating the month of July 2022 to expose the Green New Nightmare has turned out to be quite prophetic. The huge news down here in Texas today was ERCOT warning Texans to reduce their energy consumption from 2 pm to 8 pm, since peak demand was projected to be dangerously close to exceeding supply. While Beto and the biased news media were quick to blame Governor Abbott, they conveniently ignored what was actually causing the supply shortage. Lack of wind. ERCOT said there were two primary factors that caused the energy conservation warning: * Record high electric demand (hi, bitcoin miners)* Low wind - “Wind generation is currently generating significantly less than what it historically generated in this time period.” Wind has an installed capacity of 35,162 megawatts. Wind power was generating under 900 megawatts of power per hour in the early afternoon.That’s around 2.5% of it’s total capacity. These Green New Idiots want to keep investing in more wind capacity. This is economic suicide. It was 115 degrees in Phoenix today. They didn’t issue a power conservation warning to residents for this afternoon - because their grid wasn’t in danger of collapsing. Human beings have learned how to predict future temperatures with pretty good accuracy. But we haven’t figured out how to predict wind speeds that well. What did Texas think was going to happen to electrical grid reliability when they replaced coal with totally unpredictable wind?
