To solve this, the Communist left ruling class wants to load up the grid with millions of EV’s.
Policies of sabotage.
Yes...Generac.
All I can do.
Suggest a camp stove and stand alone LP heater if wood stove is not practical for you. We now live in the land of sometimes and maybe so plan accordingly.
“The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC)...released a report warning that two-thirds of the United States is facing winter power blackouts.”
Easy Solution: Replace the upper leadership of NERC.
Even people who live in moderate climates where a long 20-degree cold snap without power won’t kill them, should have a plan for at least 2 things.
1. Have a quality meter key to shut-off their water meter and know how to loosen one of the union nuts on the meter and turn on their inside fixtures to drain the water from the pipes and how to drain the water heater (which is sort of complicated), and remove water from toilets.
2. Have a closet or room that they can keep above freezing, where they can move all their canned goods, household liquids, expensive make-up, bottled water, etc. to, for some that might take little heat, perhaps even candles in some parts of some homes.
Some people in moderate climates don’t realize how a long cold snap without power can penetrate a home and reach interior lows that they didn’t imagine could happen, in time everything becomes the same temp as outdoors.
Bloomberg had a SUV have a window a/c unit on a portable stand blowing cold air into his SUV while he was in a meeting in an office building. The electric cord ran to an outlet to the building.
This way he could say he was not leaving the SUV running with the a/c on.....

Leaning Right :”I would be thrilled if Biden’s team would just do nothing, and let private industry take care of things.
But Biden is doing something. He’s actively making things worse.
You just wait. When the outages come, they will be blamed on Climate Change. (Emphasis Mine)
So of course we must increase the government’s command and control.”
” Weather pundits on TV and even The Old Farmers Almanac are telling us key factors like Solar Cycle 25, El Nino, and a polar vortex moving south from the North Pole
will combine to give most of the U.S. a colder and a much more snowy winter.
Are we ready? Is the Biden administration ensuring our gas and coal-fired power plants are winterized and have enough fuel?
Of course not.”
”The North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC), a not-for-profit regulatory authority whose stated mission is "to assure the effective and efficient reduction of risks to the reliability and security of the grid,"
released a report warning that two-thirds of the United States is facing winter power blackouts.
That will happen because of our reliance on solar and wind farms
and the retirement and cancellation of new coal and natural gas power plants. “
”Peter Zeihan, geographer and demographer extraordinaire, has sounded the alarm.
He knows the re-industrialization of the United States is beginning and is poised to exceed the astounding growth of American manufacturing capacity in the early years of WWII.
The demand for more electric power will happen because America is shortening its vulnerable supply chains
and rebuilding industries that moved to China and other countries.
Zeihan notes, “Conservative estimates show electricity demand increasing by more than 50%,” adding that if we also electrify transportation we must double the number of power plants needed. ..”
“..Happily, Bloomberg’s plan to crush coal-fired power plants is sailing onto the rocks and shoals of America’s re-industrialization demands for a robust power supply.
An example of those demands is the $4 billion Panasonic electric vehicle battery plant in Kansas.
That 2.7 million square foot plant requires so much reliable energy that the local coal-fired plant cannot be closed.
Instead, it will be expanded and its life extended. “
Yes but I don’t give a s**t. I live in rural Hawaii.
