Forced outages are a tool of last resort, employed in circumstances of incredible stress to the grid and done to protect against more widespread outages. Record heat for several days across parts of the state strained the power grid so much that it started rationing electricity, for the first time in almost 20 years.

Contrary to the IEA's conclusions that no further fossil fuel exploration is needed after 2021, Shell's plan aims to "grow natural gas supply to keep our plants full" - admittedly largely from third parties - while creating vast carbon sinks for offsets to justify its continued fossil fuel production. A 'wake-up call' for natural gas.

Out in Utah, a coal-fired power plant supplying electricity to Los Angeles is being outfitted with natural-gas-fired turbines that will eventually be able to run on hydrogen, created via electrolysis with wind and solar power and stored in massive underground caverns for use when that clean energy isn’t available for the grid.

The region’s power grid — part of a larger Western grid — is too weak and fractured to reliably integrate the massive increase in renewable energy needed to decarbonize. Ensuring a cleaner and reliable grid. Cascadia’s rules don’t constrain highway expansion, which tends to increase driving and thus emissions.
