I have no doubt that we will need more electricity for EVs, building electrification and AI.
But across the country — and particularly in California — electricity shortages are being artificially created by utilities as they actively stop competitive sources of power, such as rooftop solar and storage.
At the rate our electricity demands are growing we need as much power as we can get from rooftop solar and batteries — as well as remote utility power plants. However, due to political contributions made by utilities (using our money), California’s government has adopted a utility-only plan for our future power needs. The 40% of California’s electricity capacity historically provided by rooftop solar is almost completely off the table.
Please join us on this week’s Energy Show Podcast for the real reason California is facing a tremendous shortage of electricity — while at the same time electricity rates are skyrocketing, blackouts are becoming routine, and utilities are achieving record-breaking profits.
