"Train Wreck": Extreme Measures Being Taken To Battle Biden's 'Green' Energy Grid Crisis

US Energy Secretary Chris Wright warns that the country's power grid is nearing its capacity limit and his department is working to avert a potential crisis. The Energy Department issued an emergency order to counter a Southeast heatwave threatening grid stability and blackouts. Wright blames Biden-era regulations, specifically emission regulations, for the power grid being on the brink of failure. He claims that these regulations would have prevented utilities from producing enough electricity, leading to rolling brownouts. The US electricity demand is projected to surge 16% over the next five years, three times the growth predicted last year. President Donald Trump signed an executive order to bolster the reliability and security of the grid in April. Wright emphasizes the need for rapid changes, including new capacity building, smarter regulation, and wiser grid use. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum also warns that the US is on the brink of crippling blackouts due to over-reliance on unreliable renewable energy sources. Burgum attributes Spain's grid collapse to its heavy reliance on wind and solar power, and warns that America is heading in the same direction. Both Wright and Burgum call for a pivot to secure a robust grid to fuel the Trump administration's economic goals.
