#Ember are simply wrong about both history and the future. If the #UKGrid continues to be dominated by #Gas, #Nuclear, #BioMass etc., then all is lost in terms of the benefits of #ZeroCoal. It’s #Renewables (#Solar, #wind & #Ocean) and #BESS or nothing going forward. The #NewGrid is the only plan to #Decarbonize and #ElectrifyEverything in the #UK.

#CommunityEnergy = #EnergyIndependence.
#Renewables + #BESS = 'The #NewGrid' (#FossilFuelIndependence).
#Decentralization = #UtilityIndependence.
See the trend here?#Independence = Choice, NOT #Monopolies & #PUC's dictating to #RatePayers.

This is an anathema to the notion of a #NewGrid where #BESS and #LDES deliver load and #RenewableEnergy charges #batteries and responds to #peakloads.
It’s time to take control of the #grid from these #utilities and begin the #Decarbonization #Transformation in earnest.

#RemoveTheDams, All of them!
These #ECOKillers are the hallmark of our destructive past. We don't need #HydroPower, now that we have #RenewableEnergy & #BESS as the #newgrid.
Save #WildSalmon and let these rivers run #FastAandFree from #sourcetosea.

#FERC has been foot dragging on #Decarbonization for some time now. During that time, the unexpected architecture for the #NewGrid has emerged (Interconnected #Batteries). It will no longer be about #Baseload and #Generation by #FossilFuel or #ECOKiller platforms, but about 100% #Renewables charging #BESS & #LDES sites & serving load as required. Now, Get the job done. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/13/climate/electric-grid-overhaul-ferc.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare
The #NYTimes remains so very clueless on everything #Energy. This piece on #batteries (#BESS, #LDES ..) is another example.
A few missing #facts to consider;
1/ The #NewGrid is an inter-connected network of batteries (including #residential & #communityenergy).
2/ Batteries charge during the day using #RenewableEnergy sources. They drain at night servicing the #grid.
3/ The #BaseloadParadigm is dead! The faster that we decommission the #OldGrid the better.
Is this really the problem? In #truth, the #UK exports much of the #Electricity that it creates from #RenewableEnergy. You will not have a #NewGrid in the #UK until you stop this behavior. #ProTip: #OnshoreWind, #Nuclear, #Hydro, #BioFuels, #GeoThermal, #HydrogenGas ... will not solve it either. Throwing out the #Tories will go a long way however. #UKGrid.

This is why the #BaseloadParadigm is dead. The #NewGrid is #BESS - #LDES with #RenewableEnergy feeding it. #Nuclear & #Hydro are obsolete and no longer needed. It's time to retire all of them. #Decarbonization #Electrification #ECOEthics. @unnameduser
#BESS - #LDES is the #NewGrid. #RenewableEnergy feeds the batteries. It's that simple.
