“...So, I’m guessin’ coal ain’t on the list....”

Ummmmmmmm....no.
I worked out there for a few months on a couple of combined-cycle gas plants during the “Gray Slave-us” administration. We were at Moss Landing Power Station just north of Monterrey. They had a couple of old 1000MW oil-fired units there that they PGE had to convert to natural gas and take the de-rate on. PGE had to pay all the surrounding residents some kind of stipend due to burning oil. PGE had sold the site to Duke Energy.
So nuclear is now out, oil is out, coal is out.
Surrounding states should refuse to sell them power..and water.
When I was there, there were rolling blackouts almost every day. Yet, we still had to fend our way thru the plant gate every day because of a bunch of old hippie protesters out there every morning and evening.
IMHO, CA doesn’t even deserve electricity. I wouldn’t trade a square inch of south Texas desert for the whole damn state. I’ll never go back there.
If you’re conservative and live there, I feel for ya.

Scary that we’re only 9 miles east of the state line.
