In addition to the fact that this grid back up system, described in the article as woefully inadequate in every case cited, simply cannot work because it lacks the capacity, there is no discussion of the cost or environmental impact of using so much lithium in order to build the back up capacity. Lithium mining is highly toxic, and there probably isn’t enough lithium available at a reasonable cost, and certainly not in the timeframe being discussed (a couple of decades), to accomplish this goal, even if there was a (somewhat) sensible plan to accomplish it. Add to that the fact that a substantial amount of the lithium currently available is in China war in Afghanistan, which is effectively control by China. What a great plan!
We are dealing with one of two possibilities: the first is that the people pushing this agenda at the very top know that it will not work, and that is their goal. They want to take down the grid, they want to induce mass starvation across the world to vastly reduce the population, they want the chaos, and all that it brings. The second possibility is that everyone on the Leftis simply a five-year-old child in an adult body. They are in capable of seriously analyzing the first-, second- or third-order effects of what their proposed utopian policies will bring to the world. While I am a big believer in the idea of stupidity being the cause of most problems in the world, the stupidity here would have to be so vast, so monumental and universal as to be almost impossible (even for humanity which, as a whole, has never impressed me as being too bright). Therefore, I am going with Door #1, that this is a planned take down of most of civilization had a good part of the planet’s population. The degree of sheer evil necessary to contemplate such a plan, let alone to implement it, makes characters like Hitler, Stalin and Mao look like some kids playing in a sand box in comparison.

And yet...
“The Plan” goes on as if the whole world is behind it hook line and sinker. One can only wonder how long before reality sinks in? How many winters before the grid gives up and we find ourselves deep in winter and the only question is “how did we get here”?
The solution has already made itself apparent. Instead of “We the People” giving up the ghost, lamp post decorations are in order for all buying into your premise in the first sentence. Save the planet? That’s God’s job. Ours is save the Republic and thus life itself.
