Energy Secretary Wright argues that wind and solar energy cannot replace reliable energy sources like coal, nuclear, and natural gas because they are intermittent and require backup systems, making the grid more expensive.
Wind and solar energy are intermittent and unreliable.
Backup systems are needed to fill the gap when wind and solar are not producing energy.
Maintaining two grids (one for renewables and one for traditional sources) is more expensive than maintaining one.
Wind and solar do not eliminate the need for coal, nuclear, and natural gas plants.
Intermittency of wind and solar energy
Need for backup systems to ensure continuous power supply
Increased cost of maintaining two separate energy grids
