“Three of Duke’s power plants — Dan River, Mayo and Roxboro — had to cut its operations in half because instrumentation lines froze, causing Duke to lose 1,300 megawatts of power.”
I thought this only happened in Texas?

Didn’t have this problem when the coal plants were up and running.

Freezing temperatures? It was 7 degrees that morning. NCers aren’t prepared for that kind of cold. Everyone cranked their heat to high at the same time and the power went out.

This happened despite these lines having weatherization measures.the promise of man made global warming making these events an impossibility

Got two texts from Duke over the holidays asking us to cut our power use. I replied, told them to stick it...and build more coal and nuke generating plants.

Duke Enema was surprised by winter.

During the cold spell in Clark County Ohio, the power was “cycled?” This caused my daughters circuit board on her new kitchen range to malfunction. Boards are on back order No recourse

Rolling blackouts?
They’re getting instruction from California - we’ve been putting up with them for years.
Wonderful to have the power go down when it’s 105 degrees outside.

We own what happened,” said Julie Janson, executive vice president and CEO for Duke Energy Carolinas. “Making rotating outages [was] necessary to protect the integrity of the grid and mitigate the risk of serious failure affecting a far greater number of customers for longer time frames.”
If this was necessary then why are you apologizing? Is it because you're just another affirmative action female corporate CEO?

I would think solar energy is the answer.
Just use the sun’s rays to defrost the equipment.....

Green energy cannot, will not, should not replace dependable energy (oil, nat gas, coal, nuclear).
