It's one of the reasons I started prepping two years ago. We are one spark away from a breakdown, and our stupid policies of forcing people to use more electricity are a big part of the problem.
It’s one of the reasons I started prepping two years ago. We are one spark away from a breakdown, and our stupid policies of forcing people to use more electricity are a big part of the problem.I don’t get everything right , but I’m right about the danger from our increasing “green” reliance on the electric grid.
“When you look at the numbers, it is staggering,” said Jason Shaw, chairman of the Georgia Public Service Commission, which regulates electricity. “It makes you scratch your head and wonder how we ended up in this situation. How were the projections that far off? This has created a challenge like we have never seen before.” ….
“Utilities are not going to be able to move quickly enough to provide all this capacity,” said Christine Weydig, vice president of transportation at AlphaStruxure, which designs and operates clean-energy projects. “The infrastructure is not there. Different solutions will be needed.” Airports, she said, are looking into dramatically expanding the use of clean-power “microgrids” they can build on-site.
It will be fitting to get these crashes before the election, but they would find a way to use the loss of electricity to sleaze ballots in or commit some other type of typical Dem fraud.The mountain areas of California are hugely vulnerable. People froze to death 50 miles from LA. Cali is banning all home generators that run on gasoline. The coastal elite will just postpone their ski trips until the bodies are removed.
A reasonable plan to improve and expand the grid plus sincere research into Gen IV nuclear would be a good contribution from government, rather than forcing technology on people.The 50-60MW SMRs take very little space and are self-contained. They’re also designed to fail-safe: if there’s a problem, the system shuts down gracefully based on physical principles, not mechanical.
Back in the day, homesteads were largely self-sufficient at a much lower tech level. Even a century-old, in-city postage stamp can provide a lot of what you need, even today. Those file cabinet apartment pods where you recharge on NetFlix and DoorDash between shifts are different: you’re only consuming from the system, when you aren’t producing into the system. Precarious setup, that.I don’t know much about crypto, but from what I read, it uses more electricity for “mining” than some countries.
