Not due to heat. Due to Democrats and the moron Greenie Republicans.
Here’s where they would flip a switch and shut down your EV ,sorry
Next up, cholera outbreaks.
Quick! Give Biden and Democrats complete control. Nothing will be fixed, but you will feel morally superior.
And you thought smart meters were a good idea.
We haven’t updated our grid in what? 40 years?
Black outs, Brown outs ? How is this possible ? This is America.....Damn It ! There is absolutely no reason that we do not have cheap plentiful energy. But, because that = Freedom for the People the leftist will have non of that.
> Something I’ve always associated with 3rd world countries. <
That’s going a bit overboard. Sure, we have rolling blackouts. But 3rd world countries are so pathetic they have to import food to feed their infants. At least we aren’t doing that.
Oh, wait. We are doing that. Never mind.
“Something I’ve always associated with 3rd world countries. Startling how fast we are sinking.”
Yes. No reason for this.
U.S. is dumbed down and beaten down.
This isn’t Commifornia here, but we are moving ever closer and ever faster than I thought. Bet they’ll want us to stop taking showers soon, too.
And yet there sits the foundatuon of what would have been the Marble Hill Nuclear Power plant in northeastern Clark County........nothing but waste 😔
“Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO), an independent, not-for-profit organization that delivers electric power across 15 U.S. state”
Just like ERCOT in Texas. This over managing and brokering infrastructure sucks and only works for Wall Street. Before these sharpshooter bribery grifting systems became the vogue, America never had blackouts unless it was a storm.
Indiana has plenty of coal, now build more power plants.

This should not be a problem for liberals. Buy a couple of sidewalk solar lights at Walmart and bring them into the house after dark to light up one room.
You don’t really need a stove if you can eat canned tuna and peanut butter.
Temperatures will begin to drop in late fall although by them you may not be able to afford much electricity.
How will they charge their electric cars?
We just need more electric cars! That’l fix everything.
Having your a/c turned off after coming home from a hard day making the worlds best diesel burning engines at Cummins right there in Columbus.
A family friend works at a Northern Indiana REMC. The problem, according to them, this is the issue: Electric Vehicles. What people do not realize is that those fancy electric vehicles. These coal power electric cars really suck the power and the REMCs cannot keep up with them.
I’d like to add, that these electric vehicles use the road, but do not pay the gas tax, which is a usage tax that goes to our state roads. I really believe states need to start having an “Alternative Minimum Tax” for EV owners. It’s only fair. Not buying gas? Great, you are still using the road and causing blackouts. You rich bastards can pay more!
So, are you from Indiana or from Columbus, IN? I live here and The Republic is the biggest damn joke in all of southern Indiana.
Why would anyone quote an article from Columbus, Indiana?
I live on the Ohio River 50 miles from Indiana. Within the last five years three coal fired generating plants within 40 miles of me have been, as Obama promised, “If somebody wants to build a coal-fired power plant, they can. It’s just that it will bankrupt them”, bankrupted. Today I pay .10 per kWh, some of the cheapest on the planet. That, along with the plentiful supplies, are soon to be New Green Dealed into oblivion.
