We’re in a growing electricity crisis caused by shutting down reliable power plants and not replacing them with reliable power plants. The IRA’s response to this crisis is to double down on one of its main causes: subsidies for unreliable solar/wind. https://t.co/eBFxHE5pR7 https://t.co/kaCxqmatRN — PolitiTweet.org

Step 1 of the IRA's recipe for destroying American energy: Make us more dependent on unreliable electricity by 1) reducing the *supply* of reliable electricity via solar/wind favoritism 2) increasing *demand* for electricity via EV and other electricity subsidies — PolitiTweet.org

Why is America shutting down too many reliable power plants? Two of the chief villains are the subsidies known as the Investment Tax Credit (ITC) and Production Tax Credit (PTC). These subsidies had expired. But the IRA restored and extended them. — PolitiTweet.org
