Soon California will mandate paid time off for employees who canโt charge their EVโs during blackouts.

I remember back to 2000 or 2001. California was in a heat emergency and having a shortage of electricity!
I joked with a California friend that we here in the Southwest Power Pool(SPP) had so much excess electricity we were opening outlets and letting it drain out on the ground.
To: ChicagoConservative27
Battery storage is miniscule compared to demand and will not prevent blackouts anyway. Behind the scenes, the projected rise in demand for electric power due to AI processors will require huge increases over todayโs production levels. Add in increasing EV demand, possible electric trains if they ever build one, and the case for nuclear power is peremptory and compelling. Theyโd do well to start now.

Please stop working. The people of California don't want to wind up living like citizens of North Korea.

Can Californians still use the term ‘black’ outs? ;)

Sounds fair. Can hardly wait for the fruition of a “dream” of dozens of charging stations every 150 miles. ๐๐๐๐

I wonder with today’s power grid if California’s grid collapses that could pull down the whole US grid?

The worse it gets in CA, the better...
It is what the CA voters want...

Gee, I wonder how many alerts I’ll get from my California city during heat waves to NOT plug in EVs?
Got quite a number of them last summer.

The charging stations in California are few and far between - as my Tesla owning relatives tell me. That and when they finally find one and pull in, they’re greeted by “out of order” signs.
We parked behind a row of EV chargers at a gas station/restaurant - the nozzle of every single charger had been vandalized.
