Smart grid controls distribution. We have plenty of distribution, we lack generation.

Smart grid technology works primarily by turning off demand, preventing you from washing clothes or heating water during peak power demands. Smart grid technology doesn't fix the lack of generation, it prevents consumers from overwhelming it.

So, with smart grid, when you plug your electric car in it either won't charge, or your washer/dryer will shut down.

Look it up.



Rolling blackouts by any other name are still rolling blackouts.

The electric company keeps wanting to control my A/C, Fridge and washer

beer cold and my clothes clean.

Wow. Even my dog can add 1 + 1.

Can your dog show me how decommishoning low output coal fired plants
causes rolling blackouts? Do you realize that if we went to a smart grid
system we wouldn't need nearly the power plants we have now?

My local coal power plant has an 853MW capacity. Not bad for burning
coal, if they would let burn coal.

Do you really think that the smart grid will control every single device

So, they won't let them burn coal in it? And you still have electricity?
DING DING!!!! According to the faction here that just pukes FOX

Give it up loogie. You're a moron and everyone knows.

Really, well above, BAR just stated that he is near a coal fired plant
that they won't let burn coal, and I'll bet he still has electricity!
