The Unreported Story Of Grid Scale Battery Fires
Authored by Francis Menton via the Manhattan Contrarian,
The geniuses who are planning New York's energy future think that they can make intermittent wind and solar generators work to power the electrical grid by the simple device of providing some battery storage. The idea is that when there is abundant wind and sun, they can store up the power for use during those calm and dark periods in the winter. How much battery storage will that take? It's a simple arithmetic calculation, but none of our supposed experts have taken the trouble to crunch the numbers.

Nevertheless, without any kind of feasibility study of whether this will work, they soldier forth building large grid-scale battery storage facilities. The battery building program is under way, at least to some degree, and a few such facilities are actually complete ...

Could Electricity Prices Become A Structural Inflation Problem
Via RealInvestmentAdvice.com,
Most Americans are paying higher electricity prices, and the pressure is unlikely to ease anytime soon.
According to the Wall Street Journal, electricity prices have risen meaningfully across much of the country since 2022, and the drivers extend well beyond the frequently cited surge in data-center demand.
While electricity prices had historically tracked inflation, that relationship broke down after Russia's invasion of Ukraine sent natural gas prices sharply higher.
Since then, utilities have faced rising fuel costs, storm damage from hurricanes and wildfires, and the need to replace aging grid infrastructure.
State-level renewable energy mandates have also driven up costs in regions where wind and solar resources are less efficient, particularly in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic.
Looking ahead, the pressure is set to intensify.
The Energy Department expects average residential electricity price...
