Going to the source of your data, the only fossil fuel used for electrical generation is natural gas. It's close to 45% of all electrical generation.

Brown, who has positioned California as a global leader in the effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions ...

Hitler, who has positioned Germany as a global leader in the effort to reduce Jewish populations ...

My predictions:

1) Energy prices in California to rise
2) California will soon have the highest energy price in the nation
3) Businesses will soon move out of California
4) California total tax revenue will decrease as businesses and associated jobs leave California
5) California government will reach a financial crisis
6) Democrats will attempt to save California because it is too big to fail by taxing the rest of America.

There is no such thing as perfectly “clean” energy.

The so called clean energy is no better in that regard.

These people are just retarded.

Brown can never run for California Governor again...he has held the office for 4 Four terms.

He is following the Obama script:

Salt the Land & scorch the earth. Destroy everything so nothing remains for the successors.

Much of Texas is off the national grid. ERCOT is the in state grid for Texas.
Power does not cross state lines, Feds cannot seize control.

Maybe Cali can do the same. It’ll be fun to watch.

“How many of these comments are based on fact, education in the field of public energy supply and /or having actually studied and seen the records for california energy use history?”

I’m a Nevada mechanical engineer who has written two books on Yucca Mountain. I don’t even hate solar, but I’ve gone through the eneergy analysis game numerous times. I visited Solar One in the late 80s. My 7th grade science project 55 years ago was a solar collector.

Ok, so I’m no neophyte, and I’m telling you solar just isn’t going to fly. It sucks up huge amounts of physical resources, has pollution problems, and huge transmission grid problems. I should write a book on the problems.

That doesn’t mean it doesn’t have niche uses, but I don’t see it accounting for more than 30%.

The future is 4th generation fail safe molten salt modular nuclear reactors. Essentially infinite energy in dense packages.

Make every effort to assist them toward living up to their own rhetoric. Apply Saul’s rules.

You sir, are a sage

OTOH, liquid sodium didn't work out so well for Fermi 1, you have to keep it hot to keep it from solidifying.

This is what happens when drug-addled former hippies run a state.

Next up: California passes law to mandate fart reduction and elimination by 2034. Called the “Breaking Balloon” project it proposed the use of fart trappers on all California residents, pets and livestock.

So nuclear only? No dead birds there. Scary Gerry must have become a lot smarter than I remember him from the 70's, but what will his constituent tree-huggers say? They hate nukes. [/s]

Pass a federal law no energy from national grid because it may violate state law
