Wind power unreliable ? How could that be when wind is

Obama wants the Electric Reliability Corporation to stop assessing
electric reliability
Quote:
Never mind that NERC has been doing the same job for decades
and its integrity hasn’t been questioned. The feds also complain about

standard. They say this role “should be revisited.”

In other words, the energy G-men think NERC should help protect reliability
without studying the actual threats to reliability.
