Remember the massive blackout in Spain last year? When some people had no electricity for about 24h?

Back then, the blame was immediately put on renewables, pushing the claim that wind and solar are unreliable.

Well, the answers are in, and that was a big, fat lie by media beholden to the fossil fuel industry:

Unfortunately, too many people believe this crap. The opposite is true: renewables paired with batteries stabilize the net.
