California Power Grid Near Collapse Again After Summer Heatwave

[Weatherman2020]

In the State mandating every car must be EV.

Leftardism in full glory.

Every year for DECADES. They will never solve this problem because they don't want to.

Who is this "they"? The problem affecting California is global warming. Now tell us, which Party is it that refuses to address that? Right... the Party of Treason, the Republiscum.

LOL!!! OMG!!!

Yeah until Trump, Death Valley was called Pleasant Valley!

Speaking of which, Death Valley was once the largest lake on the continent and is now the hottest and driest. There’s actually fish in Death Vally.
I blame Fred Flinstone.

Surface area	About 1,600 square kilometres (620 sq mi)

Lake Superior - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

Surface area	31,700 sq mi (82,000 km2)[7]

Except Lake Superior didn’t exist 12,000 years ago.
I blame Fred Flinstone for that environmental catastrophe also.

How Were The Great Lakes Formed?

Also referred to as the Laurentian Great Lakes, the Great Lakes is a series of five large interconnected deep freshwater lakes that occupy the east-central portion of the continent of North America.

Blame hell. . . we'd still be under ice were it not for him. . . thank goodness!

California ranks #20 in education (out of 50 of course)

Know who ranks near the bottom?

Yea...red states

Talk to your local representatives, I am sure no one else has thought of it.

Somewhere there’s a crazy lib economics professor who is bursting for pride over his star pupil

 

[HereWeGoAgain]

Upgrade our energy grid and create more local jobs!

You sure there's not a clause in there somewhere?

Isn't California run by democrats? Why haven't they addressed it? They are the champions of global warming climate change correct?!?

You make no sense, of course. White-right traitors never do. A HEAT WAVE caused massive energy usage, hence the problem. The heat wave was, in turn, caused by global warming, which Republiscum refuse to address.

And so, we can chalk all of this up to RepubliKlan Party malfeasance and mismanagement. You freaks screw up everything you touch.

Heat waves don't cause energy shortages doofus man....lack of adequate generation does.

It's only news when Texas warns of grid overload. California having grid problems is a daily occurrence.

 

[danielpalos]

Upgrading our grig could increase supply by twenty-five percent and reduce or mitigate the incidence of fires.

Yeah! It was never hot in the summer until Trump came along, dammit!!!!!!!

Not this hot... look at the climate stats... or are you capable of reading graphs and charts? Probably not...

Glaciers are disappearing, temperatures increasing, and crops failing. Lake Mead is low, and there goes Arizona agriculture, fool. North Korea is admitting they are out of food NOW.

You science deniers are criminally negligent

North Korea is always running out of food. That's what communism does for you.

Only things Democrats won’t spend or on or promote:
Roads
Prisons
Water
Electricity
Law enforcement

Lying ****. We all know it is your failed Republican Party that has not invested in infrastructure. Just like now. The grid & our water systems are all in need of improvemet but you stupids ***** rather give money to rich people & build stupid walls in the desert.

This is a blatant lie, since it is the GOP who will do nothing on infrastructure. But, you Republicans always lie, as you're fed only lies, and lying is all you know.

All the GOP does is give tax breaks to billionaires and corporate welfare to their campaign donors

California runs California, shitforbrains. And Pelosi (aka Speaker of House for decades) is from California.

Like Texas does not suffer the same issues.

Upgrade our energy grid and create more local jobs!

Why can't CA upgrade their own infrastructure?

They can’t because the State has mandated that certain amounts of the electricity generated in the State must come from renewables, the States definition of “renewables” EXCLUDES nuclear and hydroelectric. On top of that the percentages of the “renewable” generation are arbitrary targets that don’t take into account rising demand over time.

Thus as happens whenever you get economic central planners involved, artificial shortages are induced and market failures occur. The result is that Californians get to pay mini-bar prices for electricity while at the same time having to go without reliable service during peak demand.

A lack of Pareto Optimality in public planning?

We could be increasing energy storage capacity in the process of upgrading our grid.

Texas doesn’t suffer from the “same issues”, their power generation capacity is more than adequate to meet the States needs at peak demand and they have some of the lowest electricity prices in the Country. Thus their market is healthy and isn’t in danger of suffering market failures like the ones that the California State Government has induced on itself.

The problem in Texas is that even after two cold weather events knocked out their electrical generation capacity they refused to do anything to winterize their power plants. Fortunately the third time was the charm and now it looks like the State is actually going to do something about it.

Like I said, Democrats are in charge.
FYI- also no fresh water to drink after decades of doing nothing to improve the water infrastructure.

Right wing tax cut economics makes it difficult to fund Government.

California has the highest state income tax in the nation. Where is all that money going?

California has the largest number of illegal immigrants in the United States, with an estimated 2.4 million unauthorized immigrants making up about 6.3 percent of the state's total population, according to the Pew Research Center.Sep 14, 2015

IIllegal Immigration Statistics in California - Newsmax.com​

www.newsmax.com/FastFeatures/illegal-immigration-California/2015/09/14/.../691462/

Actually being moral enough to be faithful in the execution of our own express federal Constitution could solve this dilemma. We should have no illegal problem nor any illegal underclass since we have no express Immigration clause in our federal Constitution.

Right-Wingers prefer to resort to right wing fantasy instead of sublime Truth (value) discoverable through argumentation.

Hey, where does California rank within the nation in terms of educational outcomes?

I have no idea what you mean. California has the largest economy in the Union.

And yet it ranks near the bottom in every category that would make the lives of its residents better; education, air quality, crime, homelessness, traffic congestion, illegal immigration, overcrowding, gang violence, cost of living, drug abuse, child abuse, etc. With all that money, why is the state such a shithole?

Upgrading infrastructure can help improve the standard of living for the private sector.

At least you’ve moved on from your brilliant convert Ellis Island to a research facility idea.

Yes! If only we gave politicians more money it would be fixed!

Hilarious. Why do you Leftards hate science?

Boy, you need to watch your treasonous mouth. Hate science? That's humorous coming from a Republiscum who thinks global warming is natural, pollution is good, social dysfunction is natural law, and dinosaurs walked with Jesus!

Just shut up, boy, stinking RepubliKlan traitor.

Shitforbrains thinks Republicans control what California does.

Your smart ass would be a lot more silent in person, little traitor boy. Republicans contribute to global warming, you moron, which affects California. Republicans refuse to do ANYTHING about a number of crises, including that one. Y'all are criminally negligent and treasonous, so shut your goddam mouth, cowardly punk.

Tell us how global warming targets North Korea and CA
