Gold Member BOHICA Posted February 19, 2021 Gold Member Share Posted February 19, 2021 Renewables definitely exceeded expectations and proved more reliable then their fossil fuel generation. Responses to this have made many Republicans look like idiots from Ted Cruze, to Fox News to the governor and lieutenant governor of Texas. The Lieutenant governor was on Fox News yesterday talking about how reliable fossil fuel generation is.... fucking guy is blind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, if we were still on horses now like there are cars driving around, we'd actually have more pollution not less. Cow farts = horse farts and horse shit everywhere you look.

Matt Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Texas wind power output was as low as 4 percent of normal steady state at one point. Solar tanked considerably due to snow cover also. Nuclear shut down some reactors due to freezing cooling water and gas lines froze. Plenty of blame to go around for everyone. Shouldn't be political but we can't help ourselves...
