My advice, get your own solar and Battery setup. I don't recommend feedback systems due to power spikes destroying equipment far too often. Seems to be harder on control systems basically. Use the grid but be ready if you like with Manual switching and splitting technics. Half grid and half Solar

His family members and future co-defendants own stock in utility companies. open.substack.com/pub/patricem...

This all could have been avoided had the fossil fuel oligarchy decided to diversify and invest in renewables.

No shit, Sherlock.

Bills will double by 2028

The data centers are going to do that anyway, solar or not. Can we just not build data centers?

Dump is a wrecking ball

Add this on top of a grid that can’t handle the energy needs of these data centers. We’re going to have 3rd world power soon

Not about to. Already is. This year, my electric bill is almost 2x what it was last year.

So solar executives need to fight his dumb ass, not raise prices.

They won't be the ones raising the prices. When you slow down the installation of new electricity sources the law of supply and demand takes hold. Utilities will raise prices.

Ummm yep and his cronies will be making more money and causing more environmental damage. This has to stop.

No shocker. I've been paying more for everything! He promised to lower grocery prices - that was a big lie. He's putting more effort into getting even with the people he feels were disloyal to him. It's always about him!!! 😡

Exactly 👍

Trump administration cancels $679 million for offshore wind projects www.cnbc.com/2025/08/29/t...

as if that flaming bag of shit gives a damn

No Not The Teurdpt

All of the Congressional Representatives who support these policies, like Congressman Finstad, share in the responsiblity for these price hikes.

For trump simpletons. Electricity demand for cooling skyrockets when the sun is shining brightly in your godforsaken overheated sunbelt states.

Yet our orange clown king is cutting all Federal funding for wind and solar while he keeps shouting "drill baby drill!" He's plunging us into the Dark Ages while the rest of the world prospers from it!

The energy providers could stay with solar and renewable energy if they choose to! They don’t have to go backwards!

dems, Indies? TikTok, instagram,...

Yep, we were on the path to dominate in this arena for decades to come, but the idiot in chief screwed us over on that and in many other ways since he reoccupied the White House.

Been a bit out of it, but what’s up with the Marines headed to Venezuela??? You know OIL RICH Venezuela!!???

Make Solar Fun Again From China that has replaced so much coal and oil with Solar and wind USA and Russia are not taking climate change seriously. 🤮

As someone who works in the renewables sector, it’s already costing me plenty. Fuck this fascist asshole.

It already has. Nuclear, wind, and solar are the eco friendly future. Oil is a poisonous cancer on advanced nations. They refuse to clean up their leaking, derelict refineries and offshore platforms.

pour all the dirty coal sludge on his golf courses

The resistance boils down to one simple fact: There’s no initiative to create passive energy systems ( solar tidal wind geo thermal etc) Because they can’t replace the $700,344,431.00 dollars per hour oil can charge consumers for oil products Oils a 6.1T global market (2024) 8.8T <>2034 Money

They want ppl to suffer. Everything necessary to support life is unaffordable - shelter, healthcare, electricity. Tariffs will continue to raise prices of food, clothing & transportation. In addition, AI is wiping out jobs. Downtrodden & desperate is right where they want us.

Same with Wind. Major projects are being stopped, some near complete, causing ruin and loss of jobs in local communities

not soon enough.... idiot Americans cannot be destroyed by the idiot they put in the White House soon enough

'.....is about to cost us all....' - and we're talking about the world's population not just american folks ! And all just to enrich this tangerine turd and his trashy grifter family.

rest world.. dumb ass America.. wow.

Yup a danish (Ørsted) offshore wind farm project (Revolutionary Wind) had to pause in Rhode Island because of their stupidity. A Norwegian company had some similar issues.

It's all good. I mean, it's not like there is anything like climate change that could increase reliance on air conditioning. If something like this were to be happening, I'm sure the federal government would let the people know.

Trump was of course lying when he said he wouldn’t go after Solar, only wind power. Trump will go after any and all clean energy till there’s no alternative to big oil left.

And he's ruining industries-or trying to- that should be encouraged. We need new alternatives and possibilities. His vision for the future is determined by how much someone pays him and how it affects his personal life. Damn those windmills that ruin his views!

That’s just all part of his corrupt deal made with Big Oil donors. It’s never America first or its citizens first. It’s ’I’m happy to screw you all over as long as I come out on top’ of any deal he makes.

Well we can all start using solar or battery powered lights. We can choose to cook outside. Stop giving them money.

He fooled them.

We told them... Hillary told them... Kamala told them... Only Fools get fooled more than once over the same 🤡💩

👍👆

Major #FAFO coming. Walmart, Goldman Sachs, and other 'conservative' entities have pointed out that US firms have depleted what they stockpiled for the tariffs. It just sucks that those of us that didn't FA also have to experience the FO we said was coming.

Everyone sensible: “I told you twice: before the first disaster and before this one.” Lemming: “The Party says …”

Sad thing is the republicans have done this for decades Even worse Democrats still can’t explain this simple fact to people

They vote for Republicans to stay in power even if it hurts them personally. It’s power they crave. Power to harm others with. This go round is going to be the final slap in the face when they realize they are in the same trap they set for the “libtards”. Magas are Fools.

This time it’s going to be extra bad Even the old republicans left a few scraps for us to survive When this inevitably goes bad it’s gonna be real bad

It’s bc DJT is such a sidewinder, con man that has known good people never wanted to be anywhere near him. He never figured out it’s his lowlife criminality that turned good decent people off from him. So now the criminal has been given king status from SCOTUS, what reckless greedy fools they are.

Yes. Nazi eugenics KKKers are going full on fascism and this fascist regime gets off on the cruelty that they are now free to inflict upon random people in the streets of our nation. Donald Trump being capable of cruelly raping children, you just don’t get any more evil and cruel than that.

He calls renewable energy the scam of the century. The only SCAM of this century is TRUMP.

My electric bill went from $200 to $340 for the same amount of usage.

Mine wasc14.00 with solar.

Oh yay! Another ERCOT grid collapse. In Texas, it’s about more than the cost of electricity. It’s about the mere existence of power in homes and businesses.

Plus China will own the market selling solar panels

He doesn't care if prices go up. He doesn't pay for anything, anyway. Never fucking did.

Trump has people thinking life was better when our great lakes were on fire 🔥 while the rest of the world loves electric cars. trumpers want coal burning cars and the great lakes on fire again.

I know this was a fat finger blunder but “Trunk” is actually a PERFECT name for the over stuffed ego maniac.

And I'm sure that the price hikes are the entire point. With everything that's going on with this corrupt administration, it's obvious that they're doing this shit on purpose to make some oligarch a lot of money. Vote all of those corrupt GOP motherfuckers OUT!

Big Oil

For those who can afford to install solar the tax break ends 12/25.

Trump is too dumb to understand solar or wind power. what he does know is that solar power companies will not give him a million dollars as a bribe, like big oil does.

Keep em poor.

This is the plan. Continue to force as many Americans as possible to rely on the fossil fuel industry to keep them all in the $$$

Meanwhile China invested $940 billion in clean energy in 2024. www.reuters.com/world/china/...

Perfectly timed with the tech bros force feeding us power-hogging A.I. at every turn.

I queried Perplexity for what he has done to the Chips In Science Act. They have excellent summaries. So much for the “jobs of the future.” I posted the entire thing on my feed.

Solar ✅ We wouldn’t bought our house without it!! Electric is $10 (taxes) month!

Go for it!!! Raise the prices!!! This is on the fat orange PIG !! Let American people see what he’s done🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 IMPEACH AND INCARCERATE!!!!!

Funny how he's desperate enough to claim 'Wind and solar don't work' while stopping the facilities from opening just to keep his Big Oilligarch support or something?

Like Trump cares…or understands. F Heritage too.

It already is..... my utility bill was $183 before biden left office. It's now $276

AND my utility company just got the go ahead to charge 35% more starting next year

Holy crap, 35%. Are you in Texas? I'm pissed about my states 9% increase.

New York state

Ouch, that state is already expensive.

It starts next month 🫠🫠 www.timesunion.com/business/art...

I'm thinking of going solar sooner than later.

Do it. I put in solar nine years ago and it has paid for itself many times over. I run my whole house and two electric vehicles for $14/month (the utility minimum). And that’s in Portland OR!

I'm flat broke atm, and it sucks because tRump is killing solar tax credits

Nothing like a good ECON 101 life lesson!

Not only that, but AI will tank 😆 No wonder China is Solar years ahead when it comes to AI.

I don’t care, I got my solar panels. My last electric bill was less than $50.

He's such an obvious schill for the fossil fuel industry. Say, remember when people used to actually BELIEVE the shit the Shell Answer Man said about the oil industry and the climate on TV in the 1990's?

COST US MORE ..thank you tRump

Btw Trunk is his porn star name

DIY 😉 bsky.app/profile/heik...

And of course all that "windfall" 🤬 profit will go into the pockets of the oil and gas industry Maybe at least Americans will learn to use less power The cost is also going to hit the electricity-sucking "AI" folks hard

And all that "windfall" 🤬 profit will go into the pockets of the oil and gas industry At least maybe Americans will learn to use less power now

It is tragicomical when Trump says the days of stupidity are over 🥺😂

Electricity prices are already high. It just a matter of comparing same month & consume level of year 2024 to find out. They will continue going up because economy doesn't affect republicans. It is the middle class & more vulnerable who are always screwed for the bad decision of selfish white pricks

Hasn’t it already. My power bill suddenly spiked and hasn’t gone down. I had an audit and they told me if probably cos of the price of energy….im like…but my bank account 

And maga will sit silently and take it. For energy costs and everything else

Musk are you happy now???????

Trump WANTS a hike in electricity prices. His oligarch buddies will just get richer! He sees it as a win.

This regime does not care about you or I. Their costs are covered by taxpayers. It is all that matters to the welfare regime.

What does Peepaw Trump care? He lives in the White House, so we're paying his utility bills. Plus, he doesn't give a hoot about his voters or anyone else, just retribution and staying out of jail. Elect a sociopath, get screwed.

how long before he's buying russian fuel?

Already is.

I mean… that’s kind of his thing right? Ruining functional businesses The guy bankrupted a casino and somehow there are people who believe he is adept at making economic policy.

He's already blaming Biden. 😏

The best to provide lower gasoline prices is to promote electric vehicles.

Blackouts, power surges, and for more money. #MAGAStupidity

Texans won't mind losing power, they're used to it!

Not donors, CHARITIES

You mean the felon made a decision and it’s going to hurt Americans?! Wow I can’t believe it!! Everything he’s done has been SO good for us all hasn’t it? /s 😂🤦‍♂️😭

🤦🏼‍♀️😡

President Stinky Pants has screwed us over from so many angles. Even if he dies in his sleep tonight, the damage he has caused won’t go away for decades. Our electricity was already high. Last month our bill was over $800.

Of all things he has done, this is by far one of the stupidest and most dangerous things.

Not this summer AC is off since Middle July

Actually shouldn't spike and we know if it does, they're taking advantage. Like grocers raise prices due to crops ruined by elements but bumper crops never lower prices. Water and dam generated power never lowers consumers bills during high water.

They’re tanking the economy, it’s all on purpose!

Utilities are eating up paychecks and for fixed income retirees it's taking food off the table. A valuable tool for research and science, for the rest of us it's a shiny new toy and making things more expensive for the majority, esp electricity. It's being used to gather data to target us with ads.

bsky.app/profile/asca...

China will progress even faster beyond the U.S. in all sectors now that the U.S. is punishing & stunting alternate energy source development which will affect every other aspect of technology development. We are in a race to the stone age... with no competitors.

Distraction! WHERE ARE THE EPSTEIN FILES? Trump is a #POS #PedophileOldSenile Those files must have some insane stuff about him.

He’s going to follow the Texas model !!!!

Meanwhile the rest of the world will leave America behind as they stampede towards much more renewable energy since it is ultimately cheaper and better in every way.

And actually has a future!

Not satisfied until ONE corners the market when there's several sources to split the job. Lightening introduced electricity, wind turns gears, water generates power. Where the hell does trump think powers foundation is? Too Ark and MO,all those who had solar, huck shut down and no one trusts kehoe.

The free market chose Solar. Like it's painfully obvious. And the technocrats keep building energy hogging data centers. America is spiraling towards a foreseeable and preventable economic disaster. 🤦‍♂️

Was in Australia recently travelling on a solar powered train that was quiet and used green energy entirely. America is so 1950s.

I'm so envious 😍

I mean, it makes as much sense as the tariffs, right? Forcing the people to pay more because reasons.

Trump must be removed from office!

He insanely does this just as one of the largest of US oil fields dries up. Tech is ramping up to gobble exponential power. Supply is not sustainable. Prices are going to skyrocket for electricity, fuel, and every other consumable. Our only hope was renewables and alternatives. He is destroying us.

100% of CA energy FOR 198 DAYS THIS YEAR, WAS PRODUCED BY GREEN ENERGY! "212 days so far this year. Of those, 198 days, 93%, the 4th largest economy in the world (California) ran on 100% clean energy, green energy. We're not asserting the point anymore, we're proving it!" Gov. Newsom

My son a retired twenty year veteran of the Navy received an offer from DHS to come back. It came with a healthy bonus and a very sizable salary. He lives in Washington state and they wanted him to move to Arizona or California. How wide spread is the DHS reach.

Old, inefficient and centralised.

Me looking at Texas…WINTER IS COMING!

These morons have also blocked completion of a wind farm off the coast of RI that was 80% complete. DUH!

fuck us up orange fascist you stupid tool....you to get yours i hear....somebody told me.....people are saying..... fuck the fuck off orange fool

Again I say, the Karma of Trump is going to come to the Red states and is nothing they can do but pay the piper!! This is what they voted for!! ⏬⏬⏬

The Costs Have Already Been Spiking, just ask anyone who has electricity! 🙄

Duh I expect there will be energy shortages that will lead to deaths in extreme weather. The electric grid has been relying on renewalabes to meet demand.

Aside from massive price hikes and spikes, there’s always the brownouts and blackouts, increasing temperatures, choking smog, and probably a return of acid rain to look forward to. But at least the windmill cancer won’t kill any birds or give golfers a sad.

Republicans hate low prices. It's weird...and bad.

One man. One car. One hour. Each way. Burning hydrocarbons. Deus lo vult.

Trump wants that to happen. He wants everything to crash and burn. This further convinces me that he's dying & he knows it. "If I can't have it all, I'll make sure there's nothing left.." Malignant narcissism.

He doesn't care. We pay his electricity.

Per the IBEW 1200 union jobs just lost- poof gone from stopping the wind farm off the coast of Rhode Island. Good job magats, good job!

DUH.

Yup, and all the ai / data center tech bros are going to lose their shit. Fuck, Tim may even ask for his gold bar back?

Fuck Trump! Fuck Trump! Fuck Trump! Fuck Trump! Fuck Trump! Fuck Trump! Fuck Trump! Fuck Trump! Fuck Trump! Fuck Trump!

Yup! He’s doing the same to off shore wind. Prediction: there will be the oligarchs, the legacy rich and everyone else acting as slaves to the first two. The first two will live behind gated communities in fear for their lives. They will never know a moment’s peace of mind.

Rolling brown outs in the midst of winter and delayed Data Centre construction is a bigly vote winner. Unless, of course, the vote is fixed

Trump's goal is to do what Putin told him to do: destroy the US economy. Do not think that deprived MAGA will finally realise what they have done when they see their bills going up 2x - they won't finally realise what they have done.

This next year is going to be a mess especially in states that already have issues keeping up.

Unfortunately “I told you so” doesn’t pay my mortgage

But WE are the ones finding out.

Sure. Screw the little guy. That’s trump’s MO.

Name me one single policy etc he wants implemented that makes poor or middle income Americans better off? Yet I can name many that make them much poorer. All those policies will destroy your economy & world standing , it is I fear inevitable.

I'd point to Russia for where we are headed - the oligarchs in Russia own all the services and utilities, and pay the Kremlin for favor and protection Exactly what we are seeing in the US today

Aldo Russia wants global warming to unfreeze the tundra. Drill, baby, drill

#RESIST! l.smartnews.com/p-62zr8mVG/L...

Then they meet a window

My electric bill is already 3x higher!

He really needs to be thrown to the wolves....

Already raised electricity prices here in Florida 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

Yes, all of this is intentional in order to advertise the vast majority of the American people while rich people will just get richer in our unaffected 1 million seconds is 12 days 1 billion seconds is 32 years

I hate auto wrong

The US is a shit hole. Period. What a fucking backwards cess pool of morons running the country.

Why didn't oil exec start switching their business model years ago? Pretty dumb business decision not to. They could have had the advantage, but I guess they truly want to kill the planet.

They are lazy and old

They plan on pricing people out of life and into labor camps.

Shocking

Everything Trump and the GOP does is bad for America. The GOP doesn't care for this America. If whitey can't say do and act however he/she want then America has lost it's way. America was founded for wealthy white men...period. Everything else has had to be fought for...from the white men.

📌

I’m old enough to remember when “inflation” was why people voted for Trump

Don’t worry: Trump will coerce the oil companies into giving him free shares. Isn’t that all that matters to him?

Somehow Biden will be blamed

That's the goal.

I think the “conservative movement” is attempting to destroy America so it can’t be repaired for decades to come. This is so fucked up!

Of course

They never think past the next five minutes

Of course it will ! NO ONE HAS THE BALLS TO STOP THIS MF! 😡

I’m really happy I put mine on last summer.

I did 14 years ago.

Me too Jane. I pay $16 a month for basic electricity connection with summer air conditioning use. Got my federal tax credit of nearly $9000 that of course is being eliminated by Trump and the GOP.

My entire bill for running my AC(76) 24/7 in hot San Diego was $35.00. Last summer it would have been around $350. I also didn’t pay for installation and the bulk of what I produce goes to the company. Not a system for everyone but being on a fixed income it works for me.

#DestroyAmerica4Billionaires🏌️‍♂️🔜💰

My power bill is already up 20% year-on-year—both electric and natural gas. I can't take it going any higher.

When I lived in NM, solar was a pretty common thing. The remodeling company I worked for even had a solar division. It just makes sense in a state with 300+ days of sunshine a year. I feel especially bad for states that rely on solar.

2001 all over again but on a national scale.

Ahem. Paywall free link: archive.is/7UA2Z

That should cover tRump,s golfing trips for at least a few months1

Yep and he does not give a single fuck because he’s never had to worry about supporting a family who cares about him, and vice versa. The whole family is a crock of shit, they clearly don’t like each other and we’re all stuck paying for it, in every possible way.
