That is Trump’s problem. Trump does not make them redo their analysis due to this one study you posted. Trump instead kills wind farms without any good reason. Trump just makes climate change worse and increases the cost of electricity by demanding broken down old coal fired power plants be fixed and burn more dirty coal which release CO2 and toxic pollutants. Wind turbines are clean and people support their construction and operation. So we can conclude that you support Trump in ordering old inefficient coal fired powered plants be fixed to burn more coal, increase electricity costs and kill more people.

You are projecting something that will not happen because of Trump.
You are certainly fixated on Mr. T. The authors are Dutch and Danish; they looked at the electricity production at 72 locations, all in Europe. Planning assumptions were found to be significantly overoptimistic in a number of cases, both in Europe and the US. The Netherlands in particular is going to have power problems irrespective of who the US president is, now and in the future.
