If his lips are moving nothing but bullshit is spewing out! Fuck you Gavin Newsome!!! Hypocrite!AC must be cranking in that government office to need a sweater on the hottest day of the year
I’ll turn mine on just to make it cleaner
The pool doesn't have to run right now but my A/C does, LOL
I’m kind of curious what the make up of import power is? Since California prides itself on renewables and things that are green? By the way isn’t that 50% of natural gas considered a fossil fuel?
AC is turned down a lot .AC must be cranking in that government office to need a sweater on the hottest day of the year
The traders buy and sell power in the imports or exports. Natural gas is a big player. The new natural gas plants can start up quickly and shut dow very quickly. The western states trade power all the time. Transmission line capacity can be a bottle neck.

Every utility power plant from day 1 collects money to return the land back to normal. This has been in place at least 60 years.
That would depend if you're charging it on 120V @ 20Amps -- not so much, or 240V @ 50Amps --- You betcha
All I can say is, "Duhhhhhh". Read the fine print knuckleheads, you sign up for the cheapest plan w/o reading the details. You should be lying in a pool of sweat. Its been "warm" here, but my Xcel is delivering, haha.Whatever you do, don’t sign up to let the power company control your thermostat.
From today in Colorado:
Thousands of Xcel customers locked out of thermostats during 'energy emergency'
When thousands of Xcel customers in Colorado tried adjusting their thermostats Tuesday, they learned they had no control over the temperatures in their own homes.
HELL NO.
wats up with that hand made sign saying the solar company are crooks?
Yes. Along with my employee discount I signed up for the radio to be attached to my condenser. My power can be cut whenever but I get an additional discount because of it.
Should have never been shut off. Newsome just extended Diablo for several more years. This is the power needed. Solar and wind is not going to get us there.
I havent been to the river in 3 months. I am heading out thursday morning and will snap a pic if its still there. I remember it so if still there its survived since June 9th my last time through.
It has been in rates for years. People signed up for the program to be shut off to save money. After this year watch the new Rate Case come! Spend billions that will go into your bills for 20 years. When the utility spends money the rate payers pay the utility back through rates. Most people do not really understand how a utility makes money.
They were most likely not signed up for the demand response program.
Pretty interesting as old air conditioners get replaced it lowers demand like all new appliance. In my area the air conditioner companies are out in force replacing older units.
Not replacing older AC’s by Friday. While I agree newer appliances and AC draw less power, it takes time to switch those out.
A lot of homes in Carlsbad don’t have AC. It’s not the IE where everyone has 1 if not 2. lol.
It would be interesting to compare new AC units against the addition of EVs and now electric appliances and heaters. Basically take an annual audit of units replaced vs new electrical loads added to the grid.
Well, if you just look at the CA ISO peak load history, it gives you a pretty good idea of past peak loads.
Because thats goes against the green agenda.
