B.C. has always been proud of its abundant hydro power.
But 40- to 60-storey apartment towers are springing up
like weeds - and I've heard that each one needs its own
substation to power it. Using electric baseboard heaters
and heat pumps in place of gas will make it worse. And
then there's the push to electric cars, with their charging
requirements. Despite our many hydro plants, we're turning
into a net importer of electricity. Throw in a few LNG
plants and bitcoin factories, and it's just a matter of
time before the brownouts start...
Solar farms don't do well in a winter night when the electricity is needed.

-- “I know that most men, including those at ease with problems of the greatest complexity, can seldom accept even the simplest and most obvious truth if it be such as would oblige them to admit the falsity of conclusions which they have delighted in explaining to colleagues, which they have proudly taught to others, and which they have woven, thread by thread, into the fabric of their lives.” ― Leo Tolstoy
