Lindsay Brown<p>You probably have questions. I did. Let's go through all the Qs I instantly had for the engineer. </p><p>Q: Won't some people then be paying more? Esp. if they're conserving electricity &amp; keeping their bills low?</p><p>A: Maybe, but not as much as if our current rates doubled due to <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/SiteC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SiteC</span></a>, which is possible. You could make payments progressive, too..</p>
Lindsay Brown<p>The ability to export electricity depends on demand (which fluctuates by time of year, day etc). But just to give you an idea of how unprofitable exports are from, for example, BC's <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/SiteC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SiteC</span></a> dam:</p><p>It costs us over $125/MWhr to produce electricity with <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/SiteC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SiteC</span></a>. We can sell it - when we can even find a market for it - at about $25MWhr! Huge losses, and by the way the cost of that is largely borne by us, the ratepayers.</p>
Lindsay Brown<p>Even when they're not building building pointless corporate welfare projects like the (corrupt) <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/SiteC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SiteC</span></a> dam, power utilities have big overhead costs. They must maintain dams, plants, wires, grid. With so much cheap renewable energy coming online, market price for electricity is low, &amp; contrary to popular opinion we make little/zero from electricity exports now... We can't just "sell it to our neighbours to pay for it!"</p>
Lindsay Brown<p>First, what's a "utility death spiral"?</p><p>Say an energy utility (eg BC Hydro) pointlessly spends too much on new generation (eg <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/SiteC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SiteC</span></a> dam) on top of the cost of maintaining all its wires and poles. It raises electricity rates to cover costs. As rates rise, consumers reduce their usage (and bills) +/or go off-grid. The utility's revenues fall. It raises rates to compensate, people use even less electricity... This market phenomenon is called elasticity and it will spark a death spiral.</p>
Lindsay Brown<p>It's ostensibly a different problem, but the current electricity panic is reminiscent of the horse manure crisis for those of us opposing BC's unnecessary <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/SiteC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SiteC</span></a> dam.</p><p>One of the most troubling &amp; persistent public misperceptions we face is the false idea of electricity scarcity: </p><p>"WE ARE GOING TO NEED A SHEDLOAD OF ELECTRICITY TO DECARBONIZE OURSELVES!! EVs ARE COMING! OH NO! BUILD MORE DAMS! MAYBE A REACTOR!"</p>
Lindsay Brown<p>I've been having a long. fascinating exchange on the future of electricity generation &amp; distribution with an electrical engineer - a former top BC Hydro grid expert who opposed the utility's <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/SiteC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SiteC</span></a> dam. The near future is counterintuitive. Many of us think we see what's coming, but we're almost all wrong.</p><p>How wrong are we about our electricity future? </p><p>We are "Great Horse Manure Crisis of 1894"-level wrong.</p>
