More on this topic here:
Paraphrasing the Austrian Defense Minister — it’s not a matter of if, just when.
Entirely manufactured crisis. If zombified climate-cultists weren’t roaming Europe feverishly destroying energy generation..
If investors & woke business leaders weren’t also falling prey to disastrous ESG policies…backed by their Central Banker lackeys.
If Government itself wasn’t also focused on the elimination of ‘carbon’ — meaning, the creation of so-called ‘carbon markets’ and the rebirth of the ‘business-as-usual’ economy into a largely climate-centric and injection driven Cult Economy ….
Well, then there just might be a chance to avoid these entirely preventable blackouts.
There needs to be a data study conducted on this. It shouldn’t take terribly long — but it is a several-weeks-long commitment to immerse oneself in energy patterns.
Some smart data peeps simply need to compile the following parameters in order to determine when a locale will begin experiencing blackouts.
Energy generation at the power-plant level, at the territorial level, and at the national level. Over time. Basically, a time-lapse map. Same data, in 2000, 2001, 2002, etc. Where you are on the map in relation to where energy is being generated, in relation to what type of energy that is. From that, you can extrapolate the general direction your locale is going.
Is your state approaching the ratio of ‘renewable’ energy generation already present in places like California where rolling blackouts have become the norm? Perhaps you live in a place where 10% of energy is produced using solar. When the combined % of non base-load continuous energy generation reaches a certain level — power cuts begin in a given region. Exploring what these numbers are in the US vs Europe would be of particular interest.
Who is a net-energy producer? While accounting for % generation being driven by solar / wind / renewables. Who is a net-energy importer? What is their % generation from wind / solar / renewables? Basically — identify the thresholds from which there is no point of return.
Again — if you’re in an area like California, South Africa, or Austria — perhaps these areas will experience more severe power cuts, for longer, and earlier. And then will pivot to return to coal as Germany has started to do. But then what will be leftover to return to for the late movers in the coal space..? Oxymoronicly higher prices instead of a stable demand-based curve of the underlying commodity — in this case coal.
Speaking of smart data peeps — two tangentially related data-driven sites to look at:
(We need) Mortality Watch (for Energy) — as USMortality produces — but to tell us when, approximately, given the most reasonably well-informed extrapolation possible, we’re going to lose power — for how long — and why.
Unga’s Wayfinding — Unga does STELLAR work — highly recommend you follow him.
I like that -- a mortality watch for energy. Brilliant!
