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.
Those cheap reliable job creating relatively clean Illinois coal power plants don’t look so bad now do they?
Shameless blame game fully underway now. Yes, the grid operators may be partially to blame, but the primary problem is vast, naive over-reliance on renewables and neglecting to address the lack of any transmission lines to them.
Quit trying to say” WIND AND SOLAR “ is sufficient!! You need nuclear , clean energy, and fossil fuels to supply the grid with electricity.
Something apparently lost on Dems that don’t realize it takes energy to create electricity. Perhaps they thought that they would make like Ben Franklin and draw it from the clouds with kites and strings.
