Tomlinson: Texas should boost clean energy innovation, not discourage investors By Chris Tomlinson, Staff writer
Renewable energy met almost 40 percent of Texas’s electricity demand in March, and during some early morning hours this month, power was essentially free because the wind is blowing so hard, and demand was so low, according to grid data.
Texas has more installed wind and solar capacity than any other state in the nation, and most countries around the world. Our grid has been a global leader in clean energy for two decades.
This embarrassment of riches comes just weeks after the Texas Blackout left 4 million homes without power and led to more than 200 deaths. Some Texas politicians want to exploit that tragedy to kneecap the renewables industry in a move that would not improve reliability.
