CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts, Nov. 17 (TNSRes) -- The Union of Concerned Scientists issued the following news release:
Wind is an abundant, clean, reliable, and low-cost source of electricity that we must continue developing to help address the climate crisis. Yet grid operators, who are responsible for balancing energy supply with demand, are forced to reduce the output from wind turbines and allow dirtier forms of energy like coal to make up the difference.
