The funny part is that he can’t just take the W on the fact that the wind turbines didn’t cause the bulk of the outage…instead choosing to make up a stat for no reason and then completely faceplanting when called on it.

I've sourced everything.

You bozos have completely made up experts who said that it was seasonally-adjusted.

Your own article refuted the previous one that you posted.

Talk about dishonest.

I believe the 25% number is all renewables. Or the discrepancy could be in their winter generating capacity from wind. Either way, I'm right.

https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2021/feb/17/tucker-carlson/tucker-carlson-falsely-blames-green-new-deal-wind-/

In fact, wind energy accounts for 10%of ERCOT’s winter power-generating capacity, said Daniel Cohan, an environmental engineering professor at Rice University. The rest depends primarily on thermal sources like natural gas, coal and nuclear.

Do the math.

Season 12 of “Pretzel Time with AndyStan” is exceeding expectations lol. 

 

It's hilarious.

But a quick check of ERCOT's own monthly power generation reports prove that wind accounts for 25%-28% in the winter months.

The above are from my made-up ERCOT website. 🤣

So Politifact is saying that ERCOT's own published data from their own website is wrong?

No, they actually linked to an ERCOT report to back up the claim made by a Texas A&M engineering professor.

And I did the back-of-the-napkin math on the excel spreadsheet you provided. I took the first day of January and the percentage of wind was 19%.

So seems that looking at 2020 reports to extrapolate about 2021 is not too smart.

The numbers fluctuate a lot.

That's from "Novermber" 5, 2020.

It has nothing to do with revised numbers due to the storm.

I can't see anywhere where your 10% is stated.

I've posted detailed numbers - directly from ERCOT and including data through January - that show you to be full of shit.

🤣

Lookey here... Andy's dancin'

And still fucking wrong.  🤣

The first report of 2021 for January shows wind to be 25%. (link provided)

December was just under 28%.  (2020 link also provided)

As was November.

Straight from ERCOT.

Please keep this up, Andy. It's hilarious.

I'm crying laughing.

Per Andy-math, ERCOT apparently thought their winter capacity from wind would be 10%?

When last year it was nearly 26% and this winter in November it was actually 27.7% and in December it was actually 27.8% and last month it was 25%. And in the month before the report Andy provided it was over 23%.  🤣

Tell us the story about your mad math skillz Andy.  🤡

What you're missing is that the first half of February may look a lot different than 25%.

Regardless, projected capacity was far below 25% and the outages were also far below 25%.

So the liars who were called liars have been proven to be liars.
