...The high costs for energy are related to “the need to massively and rapidly overbuild new wind and solar facilities to bolster the grid and ensure enough generation to support electric home heating and sufficient charging for vehicles,” according to the report. New transmission lines to move power and ensure reliability with large quantities of battery storage will increase costs....

Another tentacle probing out from a government lusting for a planned economy. Testing: What can be achieved by messaging? What will require more sophisticated propaganda?
