The frozen wind turbines seen during last month’s Texas blackout along with the regular rolling blackouts we see during California summers draw attention to the uncomfortable reality of wind and solar energy: they are not reliable enough to support the United States’ energy grids. As technology advances, solar and wind batteries may be able to store more energy. Yet currently, energy storage for these renewables is poor. Given these constraints, federal and state governments should look to capitalize on other options nuclear energy as well as natural gas, used in conjunction with carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology which are highly efficient, reliable, and clean solutions that can power the United States without interruption.  ....
