It’s not ignorance, it’s bribery (lobbying). The oil industry wants to take advantage of green energy incentives to build more gas power plants.
Also I love the hypocrisy here:
“In 2024, Gov. Landry signed a pro-gas proclamation stating that “Louisiana recognizes natural gas as an affordable, reliable, and clean energy resource,” and that efforts to transition away from fossil fuels stand to “devastate” Louisiana consumers and economic growth.”
But also:
“Entergy customers will be on the hook for $470 million to finance the project, according to filings with the Louisiana Public Service Commission and the Midcontinent Independent Service Operator, as reported by New Orleans City Business.”
Louisiana’s government really good at demonstrating their ignorance
