The California legislature just passed Assembly Bill 100 (AB100), which according to the inset calls for “100% clean energy by 2045”. The brief review presented in this post shows that AB100, which targets electricity, not energy, will cut California’s greenhouse gas emissions by only about 16% even in the unlikely event its target is met. Its main impact will be to add to the regulatory overload from which California’s electricity providers already suffer. The fact that the bill was passed at all indicates that California legislators, as well as being unable to tell the difference between megawatts and megawatt-hours, are also unable to tell the difference between electricity and energy.
only some Californians will freeze in the dark, going hungry however will effect far more.
Not going to happen – more utopian ideals without any real plans as to how they will be achieved (just like the ones from Gerald’s Butt). And you can bet that the elite will not suffer as much as the masses – “Energy for me, but not for thee”.
Leftwing Extremists and Enviro Marxists, pull one over on Leftwing Liberals !
I will watch(from a distance) the Leftwingers wallow in their own Leftism.
I’m sure some of these clever Leftists are watching what is happening in Venezuela, and are planning to have warehouses full of tampons, sanitary napkins and toilet paper to sell when the real crunch comes.
” Socialism, it just would’ve worked, if they would have only had some warehouses full of these type of things ! “
More proof that Moonbeam Brown is stark raving Stupid just like with most of the California rediclous laws Moonbeam is doing this for the press coverage reelecting this twit was a big mistake we all will pay for
100% Green Renwables…eh? in a Place that is chronically short of Hydro Power and where the Wind is blowing less and less. Dont be surprised to see parking lots of dynamos attached to bicycles with the masses forced to turn the wheels.
They will NEVER attain that assinine goal as has been proven in Any jurisdiction that has attempted to replace conventional power generation with this BS. Not happening. In Canada we can see the “wonderful” results of this idiocy in Ontario..where electricity has quintupled in price, homeowners being financialy raped and business is fleeing. (I thank the CREATOR that we have a spring election coming here in Alberta – the communist POS in Edmonton had IDENTICAL plans.)
ENERGY POVERTY for thee but not for me…believe it.
Kakli..? continue to enhjoy your socialist decline.
Those folks that are completely disconnected from the grid north and east of San Fran – LA are going to start looking like the only sane people in Calif.
The California cluster of Morons will self-destruct (Drink the cool aid) , or they will offer themselves to China as a bomb target. If they are depopulated by 98% they won’t need much energy, easy solution… Hard solution is convincing every A-hole to move to California before the final solution…..
nothing humahns have come up with is 100% and nothing is 100% clean.
renewable? firewood is renewable unless some berkley u schientisht does a dna splice that prevents a tree from growing.
the abject stupidity, truly, Im aghast that elected officials can uniformly and and in a majority sign on to this, this . . . . Im at a loss for words. mebbe like the ‘patriot act’ that came out in a matter of days post 9-11 *they didnt even read the thing before voting*.
…..2045? By then, Mejico will be in charge of providing electricity to Mexifornia!
Well at the rate we’re falling apart up here in BC, they won’t be buying their energy from us.
ReferenDUMB coming up, here. We have to choose between the First Past the Post system we currently have…winner take all. Or some undetermined version of Proportional Representation. More f***ing politicians on the gravy train, and all with baggage. As far as i can figure, NONE beholden to the electorate in the riding they should be representing(?).
Why are politicians deciding how they themselves get selected?!
