Could both of you please bother reading the news about the derecho that hit the region before commenting in such a manner?
This outage cannot be pinned on anything other than nature. I am sure we will see future outages from EPA anti-coal policies. But this was not from such.

Oooh scary hispanic word. It must be bad. It doesn't matter how many times you say it, it was still a strong thunderstorm.

The article concentrates on the power plants shutting down, and I doubt that has exacerbated the fallout from the storms. But, if the EPA has been making grid maintenance difficult, then I’d happily toss some blame their way for the millions still w/o power.

I’m sure the environmentalists and EPA have made sure the grid was maintained, upgraded, supplemented, added redundancy, and trees were properly trimmed over the last forty years, based on predicted population and economic growth, and have never obstructed any of the preparations for the surety of such a natural disaster.

Do you have any familiarity with slagging and fouling, fusion temperatures, coke button, B&W Cyclones ?
