Remote controlled lockdowns.
Who’d have thunk?
That’ll save a call to the fire department.
You live in California, Gavin Newsom can shut down the electricity to your neighborhood so you can’t recharge your EV.
My tiny wee violin is at the cleaners
It will happen here, too. The power company can already switch off compressors on A/Cs for homes (if the consumer is stupid enough to agree to it).
All part of the plan.
Why do you think ‘they’ are mandating electric stoves, electric water heaters etc.?
Why they started installing ‘smart meters’ where the electricity feeds into your homes and workplaces?
Good. Let them shut down EV chargers.
I look forward to seeing the liberal hipsters that drive the POSs going into hysterics when they can’t charge their toy cars.
I can only imagine the sob story articles....Mary, who works for a “non-profit(that only gives 10% of the take to the needs of the non-profit)”, purchased her Tesla 6 months ago so she could help stop the climate Armageddon that is upon us. Now she either has to get a ride to work from a co-worker or take public transportation, with the very same people that her “non-profit” is supposed to be helping. She doesn’t like that. She says the buses and trains are stinky and too crowded. Afterall, she doesn’t really care about the people her “non-profit” is supposed to be helping, she just likes her inflated paycheck and being able to tell folks about all the people she helps.
That would be hilarious!
You plug in your mandated electric car at home to charge up for work tomorrow. The power company disconnects the charger during the night and the car never charges up.
You get in the car and it does not have enough ‘range’ to get to work. You call the boss and explain and he says get to work or lose your job....
Easy way to off people in an emergency sutuation.
It’s all about control of
your freedoms, folks.
Sooner or later, this is coming
to a head.
I’m not a preppy by any means.
but the writing is on the walls.
“The power company can already switch off compressors on A/Cs for homes (if the consumer is stupid enough to agree to it.”
They are putting rationing capability in place with or without consent. Just before Covid the local electric power company changed the exterior electric meters at every house in my neighborhood to “smart” meters that can be read and controlled remotely. These smart meters give the power company the ability to switch off the power at any individual home without notice or consent.
Since then I have been bombarded with phone calls asking me to join the “voluntary” power management program to help save the planet. In addition I receive mailings at least once a month from the electric company offering smart thermostats and other in home green energy and power management systems at a significant discount. Plus I receive calls and mailings every few weeks asking me to take advantage of the power company’s free energy audit where the company will send someone out to thoroughly evaluate energy usage in my home, and make recommendations for improvements. The power company assures me it has “certified” contractors to perform the work.
It is clear there is an agenda to put in place mechanisms to control energy consumption in people’s homes remotely. The electric power production and distribution capability in this nation is insufficient to supply the renewable electric future government is mandating and there is no plan or program to put in place the infrastructure to supply the required capacity. Some sort of electricity rationing system will be needed. It seems a plan is being enacted to ration electric supply at the individual level, not rely on area wide brownouts and blackouts.
The evidence is strong my electric provider, on its own or at the insistence of government, is putting in place the technology and infrastructure to forcibly ration electric supply, and therefore consumption at the individual private home at any time. Blackouts and brownouts can be micro managed. Bureaucrats can determine the permitted household consumption per household and limit daily supply in a house or apartment to that amount. Going one step farther, electric consumption of the individual can be tied to the person’s ESG score. High scoring people receive a larger allocation of scarce energy. Dissidents, with low ESG scores receive less electricity.
Plug your electric vehicle into a smart charging station at the grocery store. It communicates with a central database. If it finds your house is exceeding the allowed consumption for the month, the smart charging station will decline to charge your vehicle.
Think about it. The electric company makes money by selling more electricity. Yet at a time when electric demand is growing rapidly, electric companies are closing fossil fuel generating plants while investing millions in systems and infrastructure to control and limit consumption. The investment in green power production nationally is insufficient to replace fossil fuels, much less handle increasing demand. This would not happen in a free market economy. More evidence we are in a socialist managed economy.
Look forward to a future where you open windows on hot days and wear coats and long underwear in the house on cold days. Where you use public transportation whenever possible because your electricity allocation will only be sufficient for a few short personal electric vehicle trips locally per month. No more Sunday drives in the country or cross country vacation drives to see Yellowstone or the Grand Canyon. RV’s are a memory. Even travel on public transportation will be rationed tightly for average citizens, particularly long distance travel. After all a Zoom call is just as good as a visit to your sister or parents. Plus the state will use AI to monitor your Zoom call and end it if you are spreading misinformation.
“Look forward to a future where you open windows on hot days and wear coats and long underwear in the house on cold days. Where you use public transportation whenever possible because your electricity allocation will only be sufficient for a few short personal electric vehicle trips locally per month. “
This would be a best case scenario.
they have been open about their agenda to force people out of detached homes, and ban private ownership of vehicles.
And this is why they want everything electric and “smart”.
“You have used your monthly ration of energy. You will be able to use energy again next month, which is only 8 days from now.”
I couldn’t have said it better myself! I get frustrated when I tell people I know why I don’t believe in the climate scam, and what the elites will do to us if we “grin and bear it.” They still think I’m a kooky conspiracy theorist, even as the elites themselves provide proof of the conspiracies, such as this...
OOOO...rush right out and buy a vehicle you can’t charge on demand or drive when you need to.
Thats smart...
I will not feel sorry one bit for anyone so stranded.
[I know...it sounds akin to last century’s “Get a horse!”]
The climate scam is ironically both a communist and a plutocrat conspiracy. Die hard Bolsheviks see “climate change” as an excuse to impose collectivism long after the collapse of Soviet socialism discredited Marx’s economic dogmas. The establishment “solutions” to “global warming” mean far more crime, disease, filth, hunger, overcrowding, poverty, terrorism, and tyranny for the common people.
Genuine economic exploiters play modern Marxists for tools.
The robber barons import cheap third world “migrant” labor to drive down wages. When first world breadwinners can no longer afford “luxuries” such as air conditioning, airline travel, cars, meat, and suburban homes, the elite media will say, “Those things cause ‘climate change,’ so you should be happy to sacrifice for Mother Earth and do without them!”
Nobody charges their EV near their home, cause the EV can overheat and burst into flames.
So now, thieves can stop by any home and take the catalytic converter, or swipe your charging cable and setup
