I remember an article by William F. Buckley I think in the 1960s about how vulnerable our power grid was.
Maybe it is safer now but I doubt it.
Can we assume they’re preparing for war? Not full scale but well, things happen....
The power grid should be completely off grid. And hardened against a nuclear site.
Plus I think every city of 50,000 or more should prepare a site, where they could drop a mini-nuclear plant in place and power the city and surrounding area.
And we should have several mini-nuclear plants stored somewhere ready to deliver and power up anywhere in the mainland US after a disaster.
I trust we are doing the same, esp. with China?
Save this.
“Smart homes” will make it easy.
Just hack the controls to set every house’s air conditioning to the lowest possible while running every oven at 500 degrees.
Do it on a day when power conservation has been urged and...

I don’t believe what the Deep State tells me. That’s how we got into the current mess.
A solar power plant that can be switched off of the grid with a good transfer switch is a wise improvement. NIMBYs who speak evil gossip against wiser neighbors building such readiness are dung beetles.
