And this is in California. I love how those LARPers in the war thread think the Europeans are going to be all for this, when their crisis is way worse than what’s going on in California. You clowns don’t know what’s coming.

They are also urged not charge their electric vehicles. How will the earth be saved from climate change without those electric vehicles? No freedom to move about freely- a governmental lockdown.

Once they realize that, it will be too late

It's voluntary, and for only a few hours of the day. Zero EVs in california will have to remain parked as a result of this.

And you folks who shite on EVs and solar and then want to talk about government control really crack me up. Maybe one day you'll realize that government (ours and others around the world) control your fuel, and the only way to avoid this type of government control is with solar+storage+EV. Your home and transportation can be completely off-grid capable with this setup. That's freedom.

Scruffy can’t wait for the riots over heating in the EU this winter.

Folsom, CA.

I live in LA. I run my AC a few hours a day at 70. It only runs that much because it’s not 100% humidity and 100 degrees.

consumers are urged to reduce energy use from 4-9 p.m. when the system is most stressed because demand for electricity remains high and there is less solar energy available.

Let them eat cake.

On second thought, we don't want them to run electricity to an oven for a cake.

They're also phasing out Natural Gas in the home and restaurants, yet they want you to save electricity.

Isn't this the same leaders that dumped most of their fresh water into the ocean to save a bunch of fish and ended up killing them faster because of the radical change in salinity of the water.

So now the fish are dead AND they have no fresh water reserves?

California liberals talk down to Alabama, but at least our power grid doesn’t fail when it’s hot.

Wait... to avoid govt control we must do the one thing we don't want to do? We must cut ourselves off from the grid and rely on solar to run our ac when it is 95 outside and the sun has barely come out for the last two weeks?

That's your solution?

I 100% guarantee that every high dollar winery in Napa will have their AC on 72.
