One Lesson For DOE From Harvey & Maria: Fossil Fuels Aren’t Always Reliable

http://blog.ucsusa.org/mike-jacobs/harvey-maria-electric-grid?_ga=2.247151555.693311558.1506879949-1069869955.1506879949

Puerto Rico has a great solar resource, and the sun delivers on schedule without regard to the condition of the harbors or roads. Additional back-up power supplies there should be built from solar-plus-storage, so the people depending on electricity need not worry about fuel deliveries, gasoline theft, or dangers from fuel combustion. In Texas, the grid has already absorbed more wind power than any other US state. The next energy boom in Texas will be solar.
