Yes you are wrong, the northeast lacks pipeline infrastructure. This puts a strain on generation with homes competing for this gas as well. LNG being redirected to europe is the nail in the coffin. Rolling blackouts are gonna happen if we have a cold winter. Iso New England has already warned grid operators. Green energy is great however does really bad with PEAK power. Dems continue to block NG infrastructure.

Nuclear has no problems with peak power. People just need to get over themselves and let people build nuclear plants.

Why didn't we have the possibility of rolling blackouts two+ years ago with the existing infrastructure? Is there enough natural gas to pump into the region that liquified natural gas injections couldn't solve?
