Cali Starts The Rolling Electric Blackouts

[BackHome]

If they are having to do rolling blackouts right now how are they going to handle the crazy "All Electric Vehicles Mandate"? They are seriously going to have to build probably two new nuclear plants to keep up with the electric demand that this will require.

Call to conserve was heeded, no rolling blackouts yet. According to forecasts the heatwave won't be over for a few more days.

There were outages, though

49,000 customers out as of 12:37am

That’s a strange tally. Just one customer listed in San Francisco?

Dystopia

Power was out for ~three days in most of Texas.

Three times as many lost power in Dallas on Sunday.

Actually, he is from Victorville but he had been banned by all the surrounding area utility companies and San Francisco was forced to accept him by law.

He was posting countless times about “blue santa gots,” “coming to terms,” “pity post,” how they still had electricity at the iHop where he worked, and endless memes from gab.com.

True story.

It wasn't 110 degrees like it is in LA... it wasn't even 100, 90, 80, 70, or even 60.

Much easier to stay warm than it is to cool off heat. Jackets and blankets >>> sweating naked with a stuffy nose and dying of dehydration, hyponatremia and heat exhaustion

I thought about that but it seems like it would be hard to cut power to one particular business. Depending on where they were I guess.

Only three? I had rolling blackouts for five days.

We'll dispose of the waste in your backyard then.

Texas did similar in July when we were on a razor's edge from residential rolling blackouts for like a 3 day period. A bunch of industrial users let the state shut off their power in exchange for rebates.

Cali has been dealing with rolling blackouts for yrs and yrs now so nah they're the OG's of a grid as well as a forestry too.
