Rather than putting some of the blame where it belongs which is on the democrat's failed electric vehicle solution of going green; the blame has been placed on crypto-mining/bitcoin, AI, the internet, internet companies, and the internet flow of cloud data. We know those blackouts, and rolling blackouts started years ago in California soon as electric vehicles were being purchased and needed to be charged.

They are saying... "AI is also part of a huge scale-up of cloud computing. Tech firms like Amazon, Apple, Google, Meta and Microsoft are scouring the nation for sites for new data centers, and many lesser-known firms are also on the hunt. The nation’s 2,700 data centers sapped more than 4 percent of the country’s total electricity in 2022, according to the International Energy Agency. Its projections show that by 2026, they will consume 6 percent."

Buggy whip? We will certainly need horses if we go full electric car.

But, your post reminds me that Electric Cars are older, were developed before gasoline powered cars, not in the last century, but the century before, the late 1800's

Democrats are implementing policies to revive failed technologies of the 1800's

Because many other countries have the same problem, they're moving over to renewable energy sources and phasing out fossil and nuclear energy.

I had noticed in the early 2010's the electrostatic field around induction DC motors driven by alternating DC currents created a field around them that interfered with Laser Scanners until shut off.

On the other side of the question is kwh. generation of unimaginable quantities. Obviously Fusion and Fission have to be upgraded to keep up with the huge demand worldwide of Electrical current to recharge the non existent Billion batteries.

AI is probably worth the investment. Bit coin mining however is probably not. Yes it is hugely consumptive.

Under the current regime of eco-idiocy, we'll never have the power for AI and be able to have a "normal" 1st world life....Something will have to give.
