Other than in far remote areas, please cite areas in Canada that have big problems generating power. I've also noted that Canada's grid is quite clean already. Most auto-makers are already pledging to move towards an electrified future. So it's not just governments. Also, you're in denial but it's not Carbon taxes that's causing the prices we're seeing now. It's profit taking by the Oil companies. You don't accept it because you're blinded by hate for any form of governments moving the public in a certain direction. Why should polluting be free? https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/energy-environment/daily-on-energy-the-power-shortage-threat Not JUST carbon taxes. When a government outright states that fossil fuels must be diminished, the fossil fuel industry hears them and stops investment. That's how business works. Same with auto makers. Now...are you trying to contend that the current "clean energy" methods do not produce pollution? Quote Its so lonely in m'saddle since m'horse died.

Those grid issues are a uniquely US problem. They fail to properly invest in infrastructure. Because FREEDOM!!!! See Texas' Blackout last year. There was ample warning that the grid was incapable of dealing with cold. Well guess what happened. Quote Now...are you trying to contend that the current "clean energy" methods do not produce pollution? No, but far less. There are drawbacks to all forms of energy. I think we should push forward with LNG investment. But the Tar Sands are a dirty an inefficient source of energy. Hydro is excellent in Canada and Nuclear should also be a realistic option. One that can easily be killed by OPEC nations playing with pricing, if they choose. Quote

Boges Posted June 22, 2022 Author Report Posted June 22, 2022 (edited) Quote Saskatchewan currently has one coal-fired generation station that is equipped with carbon capture and storage technology.Footnote3 In the projection period, Saskatchewan’s retiring coal is replaced by a growing share of renewables. By 2030, renewables supply over 40% of the province’s electricity demand. Saskatchewan also plans to purchase over 300 MW of hydroelectric power from Manitoba starting in 2022. New Brunswick and Nova Scotia plan to add wind, expand hydro units, and purchase hydroelectricity from Newfoundland and Labrador, who is now connected to their electricity markets by the Maritime Link transmission line.

Goddess Posted June 22, 2022 Report Posted June 22, 2022 Mobilfunk: Stromsparmaßnahmen der Betreiber sorgen für Bandbreitenärger bei Kunden - Telekom - derStandard.at › Web Austria Cellphone companies (T-Mobile, A1 etc.) are shutting down part of their mobile internet services during night hours to save electricity. Since about two weeks now, the Russian natural gas supply for Austria (80% dependence on RU Gas) got reduced to about 40% of the agreed volume. This is enough to serve the industry and private households on a daily basis, however it is impossible now to completely fill up the natural gas storage facilities for the winter. This info from a customer of ours in Austria: Quote Our government is desperate, they now started to reactivate an old coal powerplant to avoid power outages. In Germany they are forced to reduce the output of several nuclear power plants because of a drought. The power plants require a lot of fresh water from the rivers to maintain the cooling system, but a lot of the rivers in Germany and also in Italy are way below their usual water capacity. If this goes on, we will face power outages all over Europa within weeks. Our government is warning: prepare for blackouts and brownouts during summer season! Now they are starting to enforce power saving measures such as speed limits on the highways, shutting down cinemas, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, shutting down ski lifts and not essential railway connections. They are running out of energy. Russia does not have to fire one missile to European countries, if they just cut off the Gas and Oil supply, we are done! Experts here are predicting that they will shut everything down if the situation in Kaliningrad escalates further. But our politicians hanging on to their course against Russia, no matter what. 1 Quote "There are two different types of people in the world - those who want to know and those who want to believe." ~~ Friedrich Nietzsche ~~
