Democrats destroying America bit by bit.

The insanity of DEI is wreaking havoc in government, the military, and through the Garland-led DoJ lawsuits against cities to comply or else in hiring.

Now this, and this would deal a death blow to the economy.


...

Bain joins a growing list of power grid operators and experts to warn that America’s electrical system is coming under strain as demand surges and regulations force the premature retirement of reliable fossil fuel-fired capacity.


Specifically, the Biden-Harris administration finalized regulations in April that will require existing coal plants to use carbon capture and storage (CCS) to control 90% of their carbon emissions by 2032 if they want to stay running past 2039, and certain new natural gas plants will also have to cut their emissions by 90% by 2032, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. The federal government maintains that the rules will not degrade grid reliability, though power grid experts told the Daily Caller News Foundation that they are expecting the opposite if the rules are enforced.




 
If they want all the data centers they have proposed, then on site nuke power is the only way to go.

People are starting to win against the power companies wanting to rape their land for transmission lines.

Carbon capture has to be one of the dumbest wastes of money out there.

Democrats: We need to get rid of fossil fuels.
 
The Democrats' wet dream is to phase out fossil fuels and be 100% renewable energy. California has already set this bold and unachievable goal by 2045. Yet, the demand continues to grow, and now that there are 8M+ more people in the United States with no end in sight under Democratic leadership, it will require modernizing the existing grid and additional power sources.

As an electrical engineer, it is my opinion that our power grid is already very unreliable and is only barely managing to stay afloat by switch loads around through a distributive network of stealing from Peter to pay Paul. If the Bidenistas carry out their green energy plans, America will be in perpetual brown out and under energy conservation orders by decade's end.

And that is BEFORE they even carry out their mad plan to make America's transportation system 100% EV electric.
