  1. The article didn’t mention alternatives. Aren’t alternatives important to discuss when shutting down power generating stations?

    Are they going to build nuclear or natural gas plants to replace? Or are we expecting unreliable electricity and blackouts to be a reasonable alternative?

    1. “The group delivered more than 2,600 petitions calling for AES Indiana to move to 100% renewable energy, including solar, wind, energy efficiency and battery storage.”

  2. Our activists ought to take note of the success that California has had with this endeavor. Evidence, an electric car sitting by the road attached to a diesel generator. Also, they ought to be looking at China for some of their activist activities.

    1. California has avoided widespread blackouts during the longest ever heatwave. It’s a lot better than Texas during a snow storm.
