Ok top of that, The government wants to start eliminating natural gas appliances. Imagine the load increase last night if everyone had an electric stove, dryer, and hot water tank…

I didn't say it was the fkn solution. I said it's part of the solution. Increase output and decrease demand where possible. We are obviously not all living our lives in the most energy efficient ways possible as evidenced by how we were immediately able to lower consumption with one text.
