As someone who has a portion of his job in the power production sector there really needs to be a massive influx of new power production.

They are going to frick around an we will all end up with rolling blackouts.

Backlogs for the big line transformers are stupid. Parts needed for the giant steam valves are critically out and having to be made per order. No more "on the shelf" these days. Covid lockdowns hastened the supply chain failures. There are. Myriad of ancillary parts also backlogged. If there is a major event we can't fix our machines..

Not to mention the lack of companies able to repair these giant Turbines. You better get in line and wait for them to get to you.

The electrical backbones need some major investments. You don't build that shite out overnight.

The entire system will fall apart if subsidies ever end. Central planning sucks
