Policy solution: End all subsidies for unreliables. Abolish the Investment Tax Credit and Production Tax Credit. Stop "green hydrogen" subsidies. Require generators using solar/ wind to pay for the extra infrastructure they need instead of forcing others to foot the bill. — PolitiTweet.org

The combo of no price penalty for unreliability + special subsidies for unreliables means that instead of unreliables receiving far less $ than reliables, they get a huge premium. And more and more reliable power plants go out of business. — PolitiTweet.org

Unreliability preference 3: mandates for unreliables Even beyond paying a premium for unreliable electricity, many states mandate a certain % of unreliable solar and wind—and states are becoming more and more aggressive with those mandates. Another dire threat to our grid. — PolitiTweet.org
