Recent warnings from the North American Electric Reliability Corporation said downstate Illinois could face energy shortages as early as 2034 if current trends continue. “This isn’t just a minor inconvenience,” state Rep. Brad Halbrook said. “It’s a clear sign our current path is unsustainable. We need an energy strategy that puts consumers first, not one based on ideological agendas.”
Right. Except for evening and night time – the 60% of the time when solar doesn’t work – and the 65% of the time when the wind doesn’t blow strong enough or is too strong for the bat and bird killing turbines to spin. Wind and solar are a silly waste of tax breaks. The only solution is nuclear power. Anything else is simply proof that the dunderheads of the left are mostly humanities majors who failed high school physics.
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.
Green energy mandate needs to be eliminated.
Always late to the party
Yeah, we need to do like Texas and China, and build wind farms and solar.

Don’t forget the ice storm in Texas that destroyed most of their wind turbines and cut power for days.
