Under the bill, Oregon aims to transition entirely to emissions-free electricity by 2040. The legislation lays out a timetable for the state’s two major power companies — Portland General Electric and Pacific Power — to reduce emissions. Additionally, it bans the expansion or new construction of power plants that burn fossil fuels and allocates $50 million in grants for community-based energy projects, among other measures.

“turn out the lights; the party’s over ...”
The eastern 2/3 of Oregon is ranches & farming.
NO farm equipment????
The USA is being scammed with this climate change cr**. Man thinks he can change Mother Nature??
“grants for community-based energy projects” = $ lining the pockets of local corrupt “community” officials. Too bad OR elections have been corrupt and stolen for years. I know. I live here. If Reps were in majority this would not have passed.
I wish people would get this into their heads.
OR has used 100% mail in voting for more than twenty years, allows illegals to register to vote.
The legal residents of OR had their election stolen, and many before this one.
From article:
“Oregon Republicans haven’t shared Democrats’ enthusiasm for the legislation, which which they’ve characterized as a potential threat to the state’s power grid.
An overwhelming majority of the state’s Republican lawmakers voted against HB 2021.”
Clean elections would show a very different OR state government.
OR elections have been corrupt and stolen for years. I know. I live here. \\
I left shortly after the Unsolved Mysteries episode of the Oregon politician that was trying to expose Salem corruption was murdered in broad daylight in the middle of the day on the steps of the capital building in Salem and ‘no one saw anything’.
.
I also agree Oregon is majority deeply conservative.
Vote and election fraud is the only thing that keeps the nuts in power.
When was that?
I say we just turn off their running water, gas, and electricity and let them show us how to live at one with nature. Dirty hippies.
Now, now; all they admit to is having an aim. When was the last time anything near “progressive” has given a toss about results? Any screwed up plan is an opportunity to pander in next election cycle. Just like trying communism variants, “We’ll fix it with this new law!”
I hope the Winters are very cold and very very windy
Bonneville Power Administration controls the Oregon grid - not the legislature.
They can say whatever they want, but BPA provides the juice.
Of course you are entirely correct.
I was just pointing out the
total denial of real science and biology
amoung ‘ educated ?” academia and propagandists.
If what they think was possible,
zero co2,
life would end.
But we all know
it’s not about ‘science’ , it’s about
deconstruction of our economy , industry,
energy independence,
Constitutional Republic,
our nation state.
Thank you for pointing that out.
.
When was that?
Early 90’s.
How many Oregon voters (and their elected representatives) do you think ever heard the laws of thermodynamics let alone understand them. I think most of the state just qualified for premier membership in the Dunning Kruger club.
They can say whatever they want, but BPA provides the juice.\
I said the same thing about the BLM re econazies.
Little did I realize the coordination of infiltration into fed bureaucracy by commies.
BPA
( I grew up a PG&E and BPA brat )
will fold from within .
The current 100+ degree temperatures in Oregon are certainly Mother Gaia’s punishment for the wickedness of using fossil fuels. Surely if Oregonians swelter and shiver in their darkened homes, die in the heat by forgoing air conditioning, starve because their is no diesel fuel to power the farms that produce food and have neither water nor sewage treatment because of blackouts Mother Gaia will be appeased and there will be environmental Utopia.
You’re speaking out of ignorance here my friend
I put in solar and battery systems every day every week let me educate a little bit as an engineer
Solar panels Phitovoltaica. produce DC.
These are tied into what’s called an inverter
The inverter then produces alternating current AC
Solar inverters are 5 V above the utility wherever they are and therefore push electricity downhill toward the utility
Batteries are also direct current DC
He’s also utilize an inverter but it much more sophisticated it further I’m gonna call here in a real inverter it will run your house off of the batteries without the utility at all
It sure everything is a sea chest is your standard 120/240 single phase residential household electricity
Now when you’re trying to run a power grid you need something called reactive power
This is the power that is used to start motors
The reason why PG&E the largest utility in the state of California needs power now from 4-9 PM is because we have 32,000 MW of photovoltaics installed
I’ve been saying for decades now if I keep putting solar panels in everybody’s house of business house PG&E gonna make any money?
For the municipal utilities out here in California smile and Lodi electric Modesto irrigation District Turlock irrigation district a party stop net meter and put a meter on your seller and only give you wholesale now
If you’re at the helm of real property you really have two choices pay the utility or put in solar panels
