We recommend you get a subscription to The Epoch Times (digital or full edition) for accurate news content. This article is under Premium Edition Area of Videos . It may be found elsewhere by googling "Texas Power Outages Explained" the Epoch Times, Jason Isaac..As we know, you cannot supply electrical needs for modernity from low density wind (when the wind does not blow) and sun, (when the sun does not shine or the panels are covered or otherwise non-functional.)
Dense Fuels always rule!!......Low Density (UNRELIABLE) Sources like Wind cannot ever replace Dense (RELIABLE ) Sources (Fossil and Nuclear,Coal)
LARGE AMOUNTS of UNRELIABLES DISTORT GRID CAPABILITIES and MAKE THE GRID UNRELIABLE!
Picking unreliable wind and solar via subsidy distortion over fossil and nuclear is abject absurdity!
Unreliables ("Renewable" Wind/Solar) are never RELIABLE S (GAS/NUCLEAR/Coal) known as Dense sources.
WHO WANTS UNRELIABLE power to predominate over RELIABLE POWER? the quick answer.... Biden et al.
GREEN NEW DEAL?? This stupidity is brutalizing Texans and Causing Misery right now.
Chinese CCP has purchased millions of ACRES in TEXAS for ....Wind ...UNREAL .This is Reality though.
Biden wishes to eliminate any support for Dense Sources..and only support Unreliables. Green New Deal = INSANITY!
Solution ? Eliminate ALL Subsidies!!
The Commies love our Ignorance, and are "capitalizing" upon our stupidity concerning Biden's "GREEN NEW DEAL."
The US is presently THE WORLD LEADER in pollution control right NOW with our current policies !
The world should be following our standards! Not UN policies.
The World must FOLLOW US. China is now building massive numbers of COAL plants as policy! ...They and the World must be "encouraged" to follow OUR LEAD in Pollution control and conservation standards .
Increase Thermal Sources with rational controls , (RELIABLES). SHUT DOWN or subsidy restrict the UNRELIABLES!
USE THE FREE MARKET TO PICK THE WINNERS, OR our Modernity and standard of living is doomed long term.
This VIDEO article is amazingly ON TARGET. SPREAD IT PLEASE!!

Excellent presentation. The Paris Climate Accord is far worse than meaningless. China should be fined for sending all their air pollution across the Pacific to our shores. I mean, come on man, we're giving them millions in taxpayer subsidies for building their American wind farms. Fair is fair.
American have been long been brainwashed about manmade global warming and bogus unreliable energy sources. These are just a couple of a myriad of areas where brainwashing has taken its toll on the ability of America to think clearly and make wise decisions. Much of this brainwashing emanates from foreign and domestic enemies of our republic.
Texas Wind Storm Event
The New York Times of February 20, 2021 displayed a graph of Texas electricity production by source, just before the major winter storm, based on data from the EIA.
Gas plant output was about 43,000 MW
The output became about 29,000 MW about one day later, a 33% reduction (largely due to freeze-ups), then it went up and down at an average of about 29,000 MW, to counteract changes of other sources.
Coal plant output was about 11,000 MW
The output became about 8,000 MW about one day later, a 27% reduction (largely due to freeze-ups), then was about 7,000 to 8,000 MW
Wind plant output was about 9,000 MW from an installed capacity of 30,904 MW, about 12,400 wind turbines.; capacity factor 9000/30904 = 0.29
The output became 1,000 MW about one day later, an 89% reduction (largely due to freeze ups of 12,000 MW of capacity, about 4,800 wind turbines, about 4800/12000 = 39% of all wind turbines), then increased to 4,000 MW for about a day, then decreased to 1,000 MW, etc., due to wind-velocity variations.

Nuclear plant output was about 4,000 MW.
The output became about 3,000 MW about one day later (largely due to freeze-ups), a 25% reduction
Solar plant output was near zero.
The output increased to 3,000 MW at midday, then to near-zero again., etc.

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT
******** IF LINKS BELOW DON'T WORK, GOOGLE THEM*********
(excerpts) From Part 1 – On Maine’s Wind Law “Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion. House Majority Leader Hannah Pingree, a Democrat from North Haven, says legislators probably didn’t know how many turbines would be constructed in Maine if the law’s goals were met." . – Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, August 2010 https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-power-bandwagon-hits-bumps-in-the-road-3/From Part 2 – On Wind and Oil Yet using wind energy doesn’t lower dependence on imported foreign oil. That’s because the majority of imported oil in Maine is used for heating and transportation. And switching our dependence from foreign oil to Maine-produced electricity isn’t likely to happen very soon, says Bartlett. “Right now, people can’t switch to electric cars and heating – if they did, we’d be in trouble.” So was one of the fundamental premises of the task force false, or at least misleading?" https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-swept-task-force-set-the-rules/From Part 3 – On Wind-Required New Transmission Lines Finally, the building of enormous, high-voltage transmission lines that the regional electricity system operator says are required to move substantial amounts of wind power to markets south of Maine was never even discussed by the task force – an omission that Mills said will come to haunt the state.“If you try to put 2,500 or 3,000 megawatts in northern or eastern Maine – oh, my god, try to build the transmission!” said Mills. “It’s not just the towers, it’s the lines – that’s when I begin to think that the goal is a little farfetched.” https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/flaws-in-bill-like-skating-with-dull-skates/

Sign up today and lend your voice and presence to the steadily rising tide that will soon sweep the scourge of useless and wretched turbines from our beloved Maine countryside. For many of us, our little pieces of paradise have been hard won. Did the carpetbaggers think they could simply steal them from us?
We have the facts on our side. We have the truth on our side. All we need now is YOU.
