@derdeutscher yes we would have to start with definitions.
Network - connections between power generating sources
sources - solar, coal...
Stability is everything
there is very few countries that are stable enough having steady supply of whatever commodities in the Earth.
At some point there will be a war for resources. By then the smaller countries better work out what to do and not be reliable on others. The aliances here will be inevitable.
Then there is possible solar flare (see video).
Lets take UK. EXCEPT coal I dont think UK have any other land commodity that can be used in case of an emergency.
Any wwise people in small countries should stop exploiting natural resources of its own land to preserve it for later. Then gather high density fuel (uranium) and spread the power sorces (small nuke generators were having some press in the last 3y - I think Rolls Royce was developing some).
80% of green electricity
It is supply side not network/management, they didNT have a problem with not having enough energy (otherwise they would shut supply in a planned manner).
There is a gossip that tech infrastructure of the network was neglected. Maybe lack of the trained people...
Read More@Coop8 Stability is everything. Do you know that Spain/Portugal recently transitioned to 80% of green electricity..like solar or wind? Stability of that network cant compare to coal or nuclear plant.
My knowledge on the topic is not deep. But I really doubt that network is network.
@diyar I liked this. You have a good attitude/mindset, which is reflected in the perspective of the field report ("I"/"me" vs. "they"/"her"). This is a good example of what being your own mental point of origin (ref. Rollo) can look like.
I chatted with girl (super sweet person but not attractive) about her unusual name. What was special about this interaction: I was in a bad mood, my common vulnerable victim mood, that normally paralyzes me preventing me from getting anything done or being interested in ANY social interaction. Yet I forced myself to talk with her and talk about something completely trivial and unimportant. This interaction actually did help pull me out of my bad mood
I particularly liked this bit. Many would've spent a lot of energy on trying to psycho-analyse what she may or may not have gotten out of it, and have that be the judge of the situation. So it's refreshing to see someone not spending a single fuck on that.

When sun affects the electricity, or basically anything conductive on the whole planet.
@derdeutscher this is actually something I disagree with.
someone ACTUALLY targeted our green bullshit electricity network.
Network is network. Connections and distribution have to be there wheter a source is green or a coal. Moreso the biggest advantage of green energy is not being green, it is how hard it is to target a single source.
Now the network and the management of is the weakest link (or would be if 'green' energy would be big enough).
So one of the reasons that grid went down is because frequency (Hz) went ot of sync. If I remember correctly frequency in the grid cant be off more than 1-2Hz otherwise something like that can happen.
