OK now for the part that has to be given priority. Hospitals would be high on the legit need list and they do require massive amounts of cooling for diagnostics. Our communications grid is high on the list as would be normal legitimate operations to keep the nation running. Skyscrapers use this type of cooling system also.
Just on what a major level one hospital pays for electrical power in a month you could likely retire and live comfortably. If those units are shut down bad things happen. Besides the MRI' CT, etc shutting down the floors in the hospital would start sweating. I don't mean people I mean the concrete floors. I'm a retired HVAC/Electrical healthcare facility maintenance mechanic. I also worked on chillers in the Navy. Our A/C units were the largest single power demand on the ship and we had 2000 Ton cooling capacity spread out over 10 chill water units. That was in the late 1970's.
I have been on social media trying to explain to the Cult Green Energy EV worshippers why our power grid will not handle this and where we are headed. Not even TVA the nations largest electrical power producer is ready. December 2022 we had rolling blackouts on Christmas Eve and Day for the demand of a typical cold snap. TVA is still hell bent on shutting down coal fired steam plants.
It seems this is administration is trying to inflict as much damage in as many critical places as it can. One can hope the EV producers are figuring this out and cutting production likely to ero after government contracts are filled.
