This is nothing new for Democrats, push for renewable energies
while eliminating the old sources before the new ones come on line.
Prices are based on supply and demand so when demand
increases but supply stays the same or even goes lower, prices get pushed
through the roof. Such is the case in Maryland when Gov Moore seeks to shut
down two coal fired plants without suitable replacement energy.
What happens in this instance is that Moore in an
attempt to appear to be the “Clean Governor” it backfires miserably on the
electric customers as electric costs have risen by 1000% since 2023.Now
Marylanders are forced to buy electric from out of state from coal fired plants
at a premium. It’s all about optics folks, and Moore wants to be seen as the
rising star in the Democratic Party.
Moore is also pushing for the wind farm off the coast
of Ocean City.
Thankfully the Trump Administration along with the
Maryland Freedom Caucus is pushing back on Moore’s crazy “Green Agenda” and
told him he will not be shutting down the two coal fired plants until suitable
replacement are online.
PJM Interconnection (the electric supplier) is caught
in the middle between and unsustainable demand vs supply battle with suppliers
and the Governor’s office.
How a State could go from a $5 billion dollar surplus
from the last Republican Governor to a $6 billion dollar deficit in almost two
years is inconceivable, but that’s what Democrats do, they spend as if nobody
has to pay off the credit card. In the words of liberal nationwide,
“Is this what you voted for?”
