More Oil Than Wind/Solar Kept Lights on in New England in Heat Wave

How much longer will gullible Americans continue to believe the FICTION that somehow solar and wind are taking over electricity generation and displacing natural gas and other fossil energy sources? How much longer before we DEMAND that crooked mainstream media come clean and tell the truth? The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) reports that electricity demand in the Eastern United States surged during the heat wave last week, reaching multi-year highs. ISO-NE, the grid covering New England, hit peak load last Tuesday. On Tuesday, 47% of ISO-NE's electricity generation came from natural gas, 12% from electric imports (Canada), 13% from nuclear, 12% from petroleum, 1% from coal, and 4% from renewable sources, including wind, batteries, and solar. Yes, just 4% of electricity came from so-called renewables, while burning oil (petroleum) produced 12% of the region's electricity, keeping the lights from going out.
