| tmrand - 2/23/2026 09:38 Reliable base load generation/coal/nuclear would have completely alleviated what happened in 2021. Even natural gas peakers would not need to exist at all if not for the necessary backing up of wind/solar.
That’s, a BINGO!
Well, peakers would still exist, but they’d be used like in the past to take care of the peaks, not as backup generation every night when the sun goes down and every time the wind quits blowing.
When you purposely build something that is unreliable (and needs govt subsidies to exist), expect to get unreliable production.
