They're going for an energy monoculture - it will be more fragile.
Another example, they're putting a large wind farm off the coast of Virginia, which is regularly hit with hurricanes. Many hurricanes go right on past the land without hitting the land, but will probably take out the wind farm. So, in the future, we'll get power outages caused by hurricanes that don't even make landfall, and those outages will mean we won't be able to drive our mandaged EVs around.
Great failure mode.
