AMERICA’S POWER CRISIS: MORE PRICE SPIKES AND BLACKOUTS

EDITOR'S NOTES

Let’s be real—this isn’t just about high power bills. It’s a coordinated demolition of America’s energy backbone, traded in for solar panels and windmills that barely keep the lights on. The green technocrats said it was to “save the planet.” What they’ve really done is tee up a third-world blackout regime, fueled by ESG lies, AI data center overload, and politicians who couldn’t wire a toaster. And when it all melts down, they’ll blame “climate change” instead of the truth: we let bureaucrats wage war on coal and gas—and now we’re paying the price in rolling blackouts and grid collapse.

Mid-Atlantic Meltdown: Ground Zero in Baltimore

The epicenter of the crisis is burning red on the PJM Interconnection grid—Mid-Atlantic territory, especially Baltimore. Residents are watching their electric bills skyrocket while their grid stability plummets. Why? Because the green zealots dismantled reliable fossil fuel generation for intermittent solar and wind. All while AI data centers, EVs, and the so-called “electrified future” strain the grid like a brittle rubber band.

Goldman’s Grim Forecast: 9 Out of 13 Grids Already Toast

Even Wall Street can’t ignore it anymore. Goldman Sachs analysts, led by Hongcen Wei, warned this week that the power crisis isn’t isolated—it’s metastasizing. Last month it was just three regional grids. Now it’s nine out of thirteen across the U.S. that have already hit “critical tightness.” By 2030, they expect nearly all to be in the danger zone.

Translation: rolling blackouts and price surges are not “temporary”—they’re the new norm.

Summer Heatwaves Are the Spark—The Grid Is the Tinderbox

Wei specifically pointed out PJM (Mid-Atlantic), MISO (Mid-Continent), the Northeast (New York and New England), and the Southeast (Florida and Tennessee) as high-risk zones for power reliability failure this summer. With August heatwaves bearing down, the grid’s razor-thin reserve margin is already cracking.

One major substation failure in Baltimore this week almost plunged over a million customers into prolonged blackouts. The fix came fast—but the warning was deafening. One misstep, one overload, and entire cities go dark.

The Real Cause? Systemic Sabotage by Green Ideologues

Let’s cut the spin: this is the fallout from an ideologically-driven war against energy stability. Green energy policy, propped up by corporate lobbyists and D.C. bureaucrats, eliminated dependable coal and natural gas plants without a viable replacement strategy.

Goldman’s Wei didn’t sugarcoat it. The collapse is being driven by:

Surging demand (especially from tech and electrification),
A failure to replace coal with reliable sources,
And insufficient energy storage to cover the gaps.

This is planned obsolescence—just not the kind tech companies brag about.

Maryland’s Grid Failure Is Tanking Democrats

Look no further than Maryland for a political bloodbath in the making. As power prices surge and reliability nosedives, Governor Wes Moore and his Democratic handlers in Annapolis are watching their approval ratings spiral. Their “green” dreams have turned into blackouts and ballooning bills.

Voters are waking up. And they’re pissed.

What Comes Next: Winter Blackouts and a Deeper Collapse

We’re not even in the worst part yet. Goldman and other insiders are warning that the grid failure is just in its early innings. This winter in the Mid-Atlantic? Expect grid panic as heating demand clashes with the same supply constraints.

The result: cold homes, frozen pipes, and more rolling blackouts. America’s power infrastructure is being steered straight into a Cuban-style breakdown, all under the banner of saving the planet.

Trump Throws a Lifeline—But Is It Too Late?

In a rare instance of sanity, President Trump has issued orders to halt coal plant retirements and boost nuclear investment. It’s a step in the right direction—but nuclear is a slow game. The infrastructure won't be ready before 2030. Until then, we’re riding this ticking time bomb grid into the abyss.
