In the movie "The Last Boy Scout" with Bruce Willis, one of his tag lines was "The sky is blue, water is wet, women have secrets." This comes to mind when I think of our grid, energy security, and global energy push to almost pure insanity. Like Bruce says so eloquently, some things are physically understandable and things that we all take as truths. Women's secrets and the physics of electricity are very much a truth.
There are some serious misconceptions about energy. Solar panels don't attach to the grid automatically; the wind does not always produce the same amount on the technical nameplate of the turbine; nuclear and major grid upgrades can't be built without a complete overhaul of the legislation through the Regulations process. @RobertBryce #Juicethemovie #grid #energysecurity #nuclearenergy #oilandgas #windenergy #renewableenergy
