The boys drink and review Troegenator by Troegs brewing, and then discuss our non-sensical energy policies.
In the same week California announced that all new cars in California could not be powered by gasoline after 2035, they announced the grid was having trouble and would people please refrain from charging their electric vehicles. Did they have the sense to recognize the humor in that?
To power all these lovely new electric cars, California would have to triple its generating capacity and vastly expand and enhance its power grid. Are they willing to spend that money and risk the wrath of the environmentalists?
The only possible way to achieve this goal is to use nukes. But the left hasn’t been willing to do that.
It’s as if energy policies are being written by ideologues rather than engineers. We’re planning to get rid of the energy that works to replace it with energy that doesn’t work.
Even if we make this transition from fossil fuels to other sources, what are we going to do with all the old batteries and solar cells? Do we have any idea or plan for that?
And since we clearly need to move to nuclear if we want to move to an electric-based energy economy, are we planning new nuclear plants?
We are not governed by serious people.
