Ameren Illinois, which provides electricity to 1.2 million customers in the Prairie State, warned that capacity issues could “leave parts of Illinois short of the power needed to meet customer demand during extreme temperatures this summer.” As one company executive said, “We have been sounding the warning bell that the transition to renewable generation must occur in a steady and measured fashion and that moving too fast could drive up prices.”
Again, liberals fail at the process of contemplating second order impacts of their hopey-wishey view of the world…. Which would be fine if they were playing in a sandbox, but they’re not…. Their infantile view of the world has real consequences and, at some point, they need to be held accountable for their stupidity. When will the left-center folks realize most of the nonsense their elected officials support lacks a basis in reality?

This is more than a question of inconvenience – elderly or sickly people can die in a heat wave if the power lets out. Pritzker is playing with peoples lives for politics, again!!!

A “transition to renewable”? How stupid. Nuclear energy is the only solution but the left is too dumb to understand the problem.

Just remember to blame the anti fossil fuel gang, including JB and Sean Casten when your air conditioning goes out during the summer. We have lots to thank those two for, like violent crime, record inflation, ridiculously high gas prices….you get the picture. Two terrible individuals that need to go.
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.

They know the reduction in fossil fuels usage will result in untold deaths. They see your death as…well…necessary to further their goals.
