"Stress on the nation’s electric grids is accelerating at an unprecedented clip. Demand is climbing just as aging infrastructure strains under the massive overhaul needed to adapt to renewable energy. This convergence is making it harder to maintain safe, reliable power quality, and some regulators and utilities aren’t tracking the problem." Renewable energy mandates interfere with utilities' primary responsibility to provide stable and inexpensive electricity. Politicians and regulators have not leveled with voters about these tradeoffs. When they bite, the mandates will likely be rolled back.
