Bill Peacock: Policy Director of The Energy Alliance, Renewable-Energy Subsidies and the Texas Blackouts

The Power Hungry Podcast - A podcast by Robert Bryce

In the days immediately after the Texas Blackouts, numerous national media outlets published articles and TV segments which insisted that wind energy was not to blame for the electricity crisis. In this episode, Bill Peacock, policy director of The Energy Alliance, tells Robert about the history of wind energy in Texas, how the billions of dollars in “corporate cronyism” for renewables distorted the state’s electricity market, and how the state should reform that market to assure reliability and resilience.
