“Caiso in part blamed cloud cover, weak winds...” That is what you get with so-called green power. It is just not reliable due to natural events. If the sun isn’t shining, you have no solar power. If the wind isn’t blowing, you have no wind power. When you have a substantial portion of your power sources that are unreliable just due to mother nature, you are going to have times you do not have enough power. It does not take a rocket scientist to figure that out.
Whatever rocket scientists are still left in California are keeping a low profile these days.
I think a little wrong. 95% of Dems can’t figure this out.
Remember the Soviets always blamed the weather for bad grain harvests.
Fifty years ago many of the “Back-to-nature” magazines opposed nukes, coal and hydro. They came up with quite a few hare brained schemes to replace them with “natural renewable sources.” They sounded so good on paper one magazine paid $10,000 out of it’s own account to build a small updated version of a “perpetual motion” machine. It didn’t work.
Now they just tell you what you “need to do” but will not put up the cash to prove it.
