AI:The inherent unreliability of the green energy movement is underscored by a single mechanical failure, as one faulty bearing caused an entire wind turbine to shut down, highlighting the fragility of weather-dependent power sources. This incident serves as a microcosm for the broader risks facing the national energy infrastructure and demonstrates how the climate-industrial complex’s push for unproven renewables threatens stability compared to reliable traditional energy sectors.Open
More than two dozen wind farms across the U.S. are being delayed as the Trump administration sits on military reviews that were once considered routine. Why it matters: The delays are dragging down a race led by tech companies — and backed by President Trump — to build power-hungry data centers to lead the global AI race. By the numbers: At least 30 onshore wind farms projects are affected by the Pentagon paperwork logjam, according to Jason Grumet, head of the American Clean Power Association. - At roughly 200 to 300 megawatts each, that's about 7.5 gigawatts of stalled capacity. - Even accounting for the variability of wind, those farms could produce enough electricity to power several cities — or multiple large data centers. The…
The North American Reliability Corporation's latest long-term assessment warns that half the U.S. will face increased risks of blackouts during winter storms as demand for electricity increases while coal- and natural gas-fired power plants are retired.
