Debunking Myths: Are Wind and Solar Energy Really More Expensive Than Fossil Fuels?

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis, highlights a new paper debunking claims that wind and solar are more expensive than fossil fuels. The study attributes high energy costs to outdated infrastructure, particularly the U.S. energy grid, which struggles to efficiently distribute electricity. Contrary to some beliefs, increasing the use of renewables like wind and solar helps lower energy prices and reduce reliance on fossil fuels.
