Re: The Eighth Blunder of the Modern World keeps getting bigger?

There are big grid issues.

The biggest potential sources of wind energy are Wyoming and New Mexico/north Texas. Getting that energy to California, Phoenix, Dallas, and Houston will require a lot of grid enhancement.

On a lesser scale, rural NY has plenty of cheap land, not currently being used for agriculture, available for solar. But again, the consumers are some distance away.

Agreed though that the strain on the grid will be caused by A/C and not by overnight charging of cars.
