[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Link? Battery tech for efficiently storing the energy necessary for a region like Texas to survive this situation on a 100% renewable grid doesn’t exist yet and it isn’t clear it ever will. [/quote] If they had appropriately winterized their infrastructure instead of gambling with people’s lives, they could be warm and snuggly with 100% renewable energy. This isn’t a renewable energy fckup, this is a typical GOP fckup. [/quote] 100% renewable is not a good idea until battery tech is much better. Redundancies and diversity is important and builds resiliency. The problem is that Texas gained for years from their lack of investment and foresight. They enjoyed low prices because of that lack of spending and knowingly took on the risk of what happened this week. We cannot bail them out for that decision because doing so will only reinforce their original bad short term thinking decision.[/quote]
