    That's who's that quotes are from. The utilities and their regulators and associations are warning the amateur hour politicians that their policies are destroying the reliability of the power grid.
    You keep asking us to take our concerns to these very groups. That's why I brought this to your attention.
    You have no comments on their concerns?
    Why is it you left out the full title and some of the summary text? Because NERC is saying that "Increased, rapid deployment of wind, solar and batteries have made a positive impact,” Which completely contradicts your claim that solar and wind are a big problem for grid stability!

    You should do your homework and be more carefull about posting evidence from organizations that contradicts your claims! LOL

    Is it time for more personal attacks?

    Two-thirds of North America Faces Reliability Challenges in the Event of Widespread Heatwaves

    May 17, 2023
    ATLANTA – NERC’s 2023 Summer Reliability Assessment warns that two-thirds of North
    America is at risk of energy shortfalls this summer during periods of extreme demand. While
    there are no high-risk areas in this year’s assessment, the number of areas identified as being
    at elevated risk has increased. The assessment finds that, while resources are adequate for
    normal summer peak demand, if summer temperatures spike, seven areas — the U.S. West,
    SPP and MISO, ERCOT, SERC Central, New England and Ontario — may face supply shortages
    during higher demand levels.
    “Increased, rapid deployment of wind, solar and batteries have made a positive impact,”
    said Mark Olson, NERC’s manager of Reliability Assessments.
    “However, generator
    retirements continue to increase the risks associated with extreme summer temperatures,
    which factors into potential supply shortages in the western two-thirds of North America if
    summer temperatures spike.”

    This year’s assessment, which is summarized in a 2023 Summer Reliability Assessment
    Video, finds that:
    • Areas in the U.S. West are at elevated risk due to wide-area heat events that can
    drive above-normal demand and strain resources and the transmission network.
    • In SPP and MISO, wind energy output will be key to meeting normal summer peak
    and extreme demand levels due to little excess firm capacity.
    • The risk of drought and high temperatures in ERCOT may challenge system
    resources and may result in emergency procedures, including the need for operator-
    controlled load shedding during periods of low wind and high generator outages.
    • The SERC Central region is forecasting higher peak demand and less supply capacity,
    creating challenges for operators to maintain reserves in extreme scenarios.
    • New England has lower available capacity than last year, resulting in a higher
    likelihood of system operators using emergency procedures to manage extreme
    demand conditions.
    • In Ontario, extended nuclear refurbishment has reduced available capacity, limiting
    system reserves needed to manage peak demand

      Left me speechless chuck. I don't have any comeback for the following accusation. I have been called a lot of things, but No one has ever accused me of being completelry . Is that a compliment or an insult?
      Which completelry contradicts your claim

        CC… before Canadian settlement and modern agricultural cultivation occurred…

        Nutrient cycling in the developing of our soils…was primarily caused by fire.

        Stop. No cultivation. Trees and grasses being nutrient cycled into the soils by fire… creating organic matter from lightning and rain… washing N into plants and soils…. Creating large amounts of litter on the soil surface… then burning… recycling and building richer more productive soils… in turn more litter on the surface… causing more fires…. And on and on.

        Glacial sediment of sand, clay, as in our subsoil… facilitates the top layer development of nutrient rich organic matter … topsoil.

        Chuck… you must admit… fire was the primary force in soil nutrient cycling… of which organic matter is derived from … our soils reserve fertility sink. Trees give different organic matter quality than prairie grasses….grey vs black vs brown… all created by the manner of nutrient cycling… of the vegetation that grew during this cycling. River /lake based soil sediments…. Are a comparatively small small percentage of soil base… yet even these sediments… fire created the sediments that were delivered by erosion into water soaked basins. Common sense 101.

        Blessings and Prayers

          lol

          Biological action is what recycles the nutrients.

          Comment


            Soils are a combination of all of the above .
            And yes the main driver in the nutrient recycling process is biological action. We are realizing that after 3 years of using Crop Aid Soil plus


            Results have been impressive



            One year crop aid left , 3 years on right

            Improving biological action in our soil is now a priority

              Applying it as a foliar? Or banding in the seed row?

                Seed treatment on cereals and in furrow with 28
                In furrow side band with 28 on canola and then foliar with herbicide

                  Another of Tom's grocery lists of what and who is wrong in the world today? You are so understated Tom. Don't hold back on your grandiose conspiracy theories.


                  And the 50,000 people mostly seniors who died of covid in Canada were just another planned distraction Tom?



                  So Tom these are also the organizations that are responsible for the nasty spring fire season in Alberta? It was all planned by the academics and government forest resource managers?


                  It wouldn't have anything to do with the drought and above average temperatures?

                  Scientists have said expect more extreme fire conditions as human caused climate changes intensifies.

                  Its one of the more obvious costs of climate change.
                  Not one of those is a conspiracy theory, even remotely.
                  WEF , a made up up organization spawned from Maurice Strong in the mid ‘70’s and initiated later into agenda 21 who inspired Klause Schwab … fact , indisputable. Adopted by the UN , indisputable fact .
                  BLM , ask Denzil Washington, Candice Owens , Morgan Freeman on their views as black people .. indisputable …. Again





                  Absolute no coincidence there



                  And you cheerlead it all on from your zoo cage throwing feces at everyone who tries to tell the truth …. Sad , just exactly like that lady , person , in the video AB5 showed . That is bang on .

                    And yes Chuck it’s the ole 20 - 80 rule , 100 % , there is a reason that 20% makes more money , it’s no secret other than the 1% that you correctly pointed out . The one thing correct you have said , and I agree 110%, but you refuse to absolutely acknowledge is Trudeau and the support the NDP gave him . They are absolutely demolishing the 99% including yet you have said absolutely nothing . The future of your kids , all our kids and grandchildren are at stake here. And yet we are all worked up about bathrooms and pride month ??
                    There is something seriously wrong here

                      In soil development FIRE is the seventh development factor:
