So is the overgeneration because of the long-term contracts? I thought that many of those were "take or pay".

Then, too, this recession is probably worse than we think, so that may be a contributing cause.

Is Helms Pumped Storage out of service? They can suck up a couple thousand megawatts each night, and give it back during the day. (I worked there for a month - it's an engineering marvel, IMO)

And one more question. Does this mean that Davis will rescind his Lights Out at Night Order?

Don't these <BOZOS> understand that there's only an electricity shortage (so far) during the daytime? And that selling power at night is the only way utilities can recoup their major losses during the day?

DAVIS IS A MORON.
