This is the sort of anti-electric story you’ll see on social media all the time. Written in a way to make people laugh and slam their fist on the table. Like all of the stories, it’s fake. Deliberately written to try to stall the transition. You’d think after decades of complete fantasies about ‘baseload power’, and ‘when the sun doesn’t shine and wind doesn’t blow’, people might be a bit less gullible. Alas.
