Trump’s hatred of wind energy means ‘America will lose the test of its will to build,’ says Invenergy, whose Grain Belt Express ‘transmission superhighway ‘ line was targeted. “The administration is seeking to undermine both the generation of clean power and the infrastructure that supports it.”

1. The trump administration is on big oil payroll. They do not care.

2. What happened with the GBE is such a shame. Transmission lines don’t care where the electrons come from. Transmission buildouts became targeted because they were mostly driven by renewable development for the last 10-15 years.

   It sucks how political this industry has become (I know I know, same can be said for almost anything). Let the economists and engineers to there jobs…

   Granted there are cost allocation issues to resolve to ensure the cost of building $$$ grid infrastructure is fairly aligned to those who benefit.

   But independent of one’s view on energy sources, everyone should be support building out the platform upon which our energy future will be built upon

3. Killing our future economy. Great policy.

4. And how much have they donated to GOP over the last 10 years?

5. The man is a fucking moron.

6. Batteries end the fossil fuel age.

   It’s that simple. The baseload argument falls apart.

   With batteries it’s about charging and everyone understands how that works. The luddite, the scholar and everyone in the middle.

   What charges those batteries the cheapest? We know the answer to this.

7. The disposal of the batteries is the problem that is not being addressed. The toxic waste created by batteries will soon start poisoning the water, killing fish, plants trees. Wind only works when the wind blows. How many birds die everyday because of the blades on the windmills?
