Wind turbine energy in Texas is a whole 5%..
The whole it's the renewables causing power outages is bullshit.
It's the Rothschilds. They own the power companies.
The chair of the BOD for Ercot, the power company at the center of Texas blackouts, is a Jew.

Talberg lives in Michigan.
Prior to the MPSC, Ms. Talberg was a senior consultant at Public Sector Consultants. There, she co-led the development of Michigan Saves, a nonprofit green bank that has financed over $200 million in energy efficiency projects, while also helping staff the state's wind zone board and offshore wind council. She has also served in an advisory capacity to commissioners at the Public Utility Commission of Texas and the Michigan Public Service Commission, addressing retail and wholesale market issues, facility siting, ratemaking, and other regulatory issues. Ms. Talberg also has experience with environmental and safety compliance and enforcement for drinking water and wastewater facilities.

Like I said, blaming the Texas blackout on renewables is hillbilly bullshit.
Careful who you follow. electric cars are the future.
Idiot, the sun provides free energy. People are such morans.
The big wind farms are stupid. You lose half the power by transmitting it through the lines to the point of use.
But smaller solar and wind farms together make sense.
I'm a 30+ yr electrician
Texas produces the most wind power of any U.S. state. According to ERCOT (Energy Reliability Council of Texas), wind power accounted for at least 15.7% of the electricity generated in Texas during 2017, as wind was 17.4% of electricity generated in ERCOT, which manages 90% of Texas's power.
if 17% of the energy can take down the grid, some engineers need to pay up.
7 1750 watt heaters.
1750/120 = 14.5 Amps.
122 amps of pure ineffecient heating. I'm calling bullshit. Would be tripping breakers left and right.
All power transmitted through lines is subject to line loss. Power plants should be as close to energy demand area as possible.
Would require much smaller power plants, plus less line maint.
Glad you noticed. The great awakening.
If you aren't an electrician, your opinion is not required, as you don't know wtf you are talking about.
As long as you have a charge, you can sleep in you car with the heater on without running the car.
Learn son.
Watch out when you start messing with 277/480.
But one of the worst shocks I got was from installing an outdoor GFI (early in my carrer). Boss said power was off, so I grabbed it without checking, wet day. Ouch!
Wrong, I hate fucking power companies. Don't you get it? Solar and wind moves us AWAY from central control. Ask any sailor.
You are just retarded. Electric cars don't have gears or transmission..
The gears and transmission is eliminated though variable speed control.
Nuke power plants are good enough for AC carriers, good enough for small cities. Safe too.
Steamboat.
But I was in the military, I've been all over the world, including Russia. So kindly fuck off.
They have reduction gears. If you've been paying attention, I'm not a fan of the giant wind turbines.
Stupid fucking tard.
Filtered.
Yep, fire up your 5hp after you fill it with gas/oil mix next time you need to use your drill.
Moran.
Umm, Leningrad. Might want to look on a map to figure out how I got there through Finland.
WTF does that have to does with nuke power plants. Did you know Nuclear "waste water" is safe to drink?
