Critics of the Biden administration’s energy policies have often pointed out the lack of forethought that goes into the challenges in bringing President Joe Biden’s vision to fruition. Whether it’s the misguided effort to build out charging stations to support its EV mandate, or the impacts of its offshore wind goals on marine wildlife, the administration has seemed more interested in goals than thoughtful planning and analysis of impacts.
A pair of analysts have been conducting research on federal and state green energy policies on the grid and finding what they call short-sighted thinking when it comes to the policies’ impacts on energy reliability and affordability. The business they’ve founded offering these services, Always On Energy Research, had so much demand, they didn’t start advertising until a few months after they opened their doors.
Cost and reliability
Last May, Mitch Rolling and Isaac Orr, also known on Substack as the “Energy Bad Boys,” modeled the cost and reliability impacts of the Environmental Protection Agency’s new power plant rule for the Industrial Commission of North Dakota. The rule requires unproven carbon capture technologies on power plants. The investments to implement the technology aren’t feasible for coal-fired power plants and costly for new natural gas-fired generation. As critics have pointed out, taking large amounts of reliable power off the grid and making it costly to add new reliable power will create reliability problems.
The analysis Orr and Rolling conducted found that the EPA performed a regulatory impact analysis, but in that analysis, the agency never performed a reliability assessment. Instead, it measured the impacts of the policy using a resource adequacy analysis, which the agency has stated isn’t adequate for measuring regulatory impacts on grid reliability. The EPA also used assumptions that Orr and Rolling found to be “shockingly unrealistic” and “irresponsible.” […]

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
