Trump's electricity price rises and renewables.

I've been arguing again at WUWT, eg here and here. The context is a campaign being waged to try to shift responsibility for coming US electricity price rises away from the Trump administration, to other scapegoats - while still blaming Biden, of course. The talking point seems to come from the White House. It is that you can blame the blue states, because their climate policies make electricity prices higher than red states.

Well, it's true that generally prices are higher in blue states - WUWT posted this map to make the point:

But I added in yellow the percentage of generation performed by wind in the top ten wind states. They are mostly red states, and have quite low electricity prices. So it isn't use of wind, at least, that makes the difference.

A commenter, Mark BLR, showed a graph of price versus wind use which makes the point more comprehensively. My version is here:

States with high wind use, red or blue (but mostly red) have prices pretty much at the minimum.
