Failed State? America's Leaders Have Taken Us To A Place Where We Could Literally Run Out Of Electricity

 While electrical data centers and clean technology facilities have increased rapidly within the United States, it appears the country is still running short on time to find a solution to its decreasing power grid, according to a new report.

Multiple states across the U.S. have now set off alarms due to concerns as their industrial power struggles to keep up with demands, according to The Washington Post.

To accommodate all planned and under-construction data centers, both Texas and North Virginia would require the power equivalent to several large nuclear power plants, according to The Washington Post.

While clean energy appears to be at odds with the power grid, the Biden Administration's Environmental Protection Agency has implemented strict regulations that have significantly shaped the country's power grid.

The EPA previously attempted to propose a requirement that would have required existing coal-fired power plants to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions by 90% by 2024.

Concerns regarding the suggested plans questioned the regulations to natural gas power plants that would mandate expensive technologies such as carbon capture and sequestration and blended hydrogen.

Last June, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Commissioner Mark Christie spoke to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce about the consequences America's power grid could face if the U.S. continued to phase out fossil fuel infrastructure.
