Biden Is Sleepwalking Into A Summer Energy Crisis

For a president whose chief of staff reportedly begins each morning by checking the average price of gasoline, Joe Biden’s administration is awfully dismissive of warning signs that the nation’s electrical grid can’t handle the summer heat.

Last month, the North American Electricity Reliability Corporation, a nonprofit electrical grid watchdog, issued a new report warning that two-thirds of the United States face a heightened risk of power outages this summer. [bold, links added]

Part of the problem is adverse weather conditions. A drought in the West has diminished hydroelectric capacity, and a drought in the Missouri River basin is denying thermal generators the natural cooling they need to stay operational.

But not all of the grid’s troubles are related to weather. Government regulations and taxes designed to reduce carbon emissions have also caused a huge loss in generating capacity from power plants reliant on fossil fuels.

It's going to get real fun, real fast, in places like NYC when it's 90+, 100% humidity, and the electricity cuts out.

Yup, and then all those electric cars they are demanding people buy become bricks. Summer will seem like nothing when winter hits and people can't afford to heat their homes. Happy days ahead indeed.

Everything is going exactly as planned. This 'transition' bullshit is a ruse. Democrats have no intention to transition to all electric as they claim. It is all about punishing and weakening America as a nation, which is the point of every single thing Biden does. EVERTHING, this administration does is purposely designed to slam America. The more miserable Americans are, the happier Democrats and their billionaire controllers are.

I'm guessing that after a sweltering summer with blackouts, no money to buy gas for extra outings or vacations and no steaks on the barbecue, by the time mid terms hit even loyal democrats will be jumping ship and Schmucky and the Mad Queen of Hearts won't have a clue as to why they were demoted.
