Texas Gov. Greg Abbott claim blaming the state s massive power outages on renewable energy is misleading 18-Feb-2021 5:30 PM EST, by Newswise
Truthfulness: False
Claim:
“This shows how the Green New Deal would be a deadly deal for the United States of America. Our wind and our solar got shut down, and they were collectively more than 10 percent of our power grid, and that thrust Texas into a situation where it was lacking power on a statewide basis. . It just shows that fossil fuel is necessary.”
On Tuesday in an interview on Fox News with Sean Hannity, Texas Governor Greg Abbott blamed the outages on wind turbines and on the Green New Deal. Rolling blackouts have ravaged Texas after a winter storm created a sudden spike in energy demand and hamstrung production of natural gas, coal, nuclear, and wind energy.
