I mean if you played fucking SimCity 2000, you'd know that Wind Power is a good supplement to mainline power solutions (natural gas, coal, etc.) but it should not be your primary source.
Every renewable power source right now has some sort of drawback. Solar requires acres upon ACRES of fucking land to gather the kind of energy that nonrenewable energy can make. Wind is subject to shit weather (surprise) and also is extremely bad for flying animals (shishka-bird).
On top of that, you need batteries to store power when solar power/wind power is unavailable. That also takes a shitload of land as well. Texas may have room for that but shitholes like New York and urban California doesn't.
You'd think these leftists would like having a solar power farm with accompanying batteries built in their backyard?

Yes, but Cities Skylines doesn't factor that in... so.
