Anyone else have the MISO app? It gives real-time statistics on energy demand/production by source. This is the current situation.
Now tell me, how we are going to rely on the electrical grid for heating homes, cooking, charging cars, etc within 7 years when not even 5% of the demand can be met with "renewable" energy right now?

As a lineman I work on the grid every day and I loose faith in it more and more each day. I don’t consider myself a doomsday prepper but I do have a wife and two kids that need to be taken care of. This summer I am putting in a shallow well at home with a hand pump on top and I’m going to be looking at getting a wood stove in the house I already have wood heat in the garage. I have been on storm jobs where ice storms have left people in the dark for a month or more. It just happened last spring or the spring before in western ND. Mother Nature can cause enough trouble with the grid now throw in all these granola eaters trying to run the world off windmills and solar panels and telling everyone to buy an electric car so we can put twice as much load on a system that already has its tongue hanging out. Now imagine if a major city like Minneapolis or Chicago would be off for even two weeks. Bullets would be flying by day 3 or 4 and all those people will flea the city and head for the country so I urge everyone to be less reliant on electricity and have somewhat of a plan and if you don’t ever use it great but at least you won’t get caught with your pants down if it all goes south.

Climate change is a hoax. Not man made, It's arrogant to think we have anything to do with it. Green energy isnt green, just puts money in a different pot. This whole manipulation of narrative is discusting..I agree there is too many of the wrong kind of people on my planet though.
