A warning to Britain: Brought to its knees by a crackpot,
Net Zero-obsessed socialist government, dystopian Spain
offers a chilling vision of our possible future
. . .
Short version, the multi-national power grid
BLACKOUT was caused by the "Net-Zero" fanatics
TRYING to run everything on their 'green' systems.
Nothing to do with 'green' systems. The backbone is still fossil fuel
and reliable hydro and lots of nuclear.
Didn't even come close. Two entire countries
offline for over 24 hours in some cases.
It wasn't a generation issue. Was a network management problem.
I wonder how much FOOD rotted in unpowered
freezers ?
None. The freezers are heavily insulated and although the food might
have time to thaw, it won't have time to rot. Meat will probably be
cheap for a while! ;)

Umm ... I didn't have the data to research the huge
power outages, external entities did that. I'm just
presenting their conclusion.
Ultra-Woke/Green Spain - now oft described as a
slow-motion disaster in progress - caused this.
It was, as I indicated, a control problem. There was no flaw with the
green technologies but rather with control of the grid.
Spain generates enough wind and solar to sell to France and Morocco.
Didn't even come close. Two entire countries
offline for over 24 hours in some cases.
It wasn't a generation issue. Was a network management problem.
No, it was a generation issue ... the 'green' systems
could not cope. This caused a chain-reaction. Such things
are not unknown with big power grids. They'll "upgrade"
their networks, but then cause some NEW disaster their
stuff can't cope with.
"A few minutes before the outage, fluctuations were observed in the
grid, and there was a spike in wind power generation, which had been
very low until then. France suddenly stopped importing electricity
from Spain, perhaps because it detected a problem in the peninsular
grid, and this deepened the imbalance between supply and demand.
"At that point, the few operating nuclear power plants received an
overload signal. In accordance with protocol, control rods were
inserted and they were automatically shut down.
"But what was most surprising was the behaviour of solar
photovoltaics, which dropped sharply from generating 18,000 MW to just
8,000 MW in just a few seconds. Since the sun had not vanished, it
must have been an automated command that switched off thousands of
solar facilities."
It was a grid management issue.
Believe what you want to, it won't change the facts or the laws ofIt was a grid management issue.
Which will magically disappear ... right ?:-)
Oh ye of excessive faith ...........
Sorry, but 'green' CANNOT carry the load alone.
