you need to keep in mind the transmission & substation side of the coin. we may have the generation, but do we have the capability to move it where it needs to go?

one of California's big issues is the forest fires wreak havic on their transmission lines. from over heating/sagging/being in a forest fire/having to be turned off/etc.

if you dont have a reliable and sustainable way to get the power to where it needs to go, it doesn't matter how much generation you have.

without a good transmission system, BC Hydro would not be able to have dams up in the Peace River area.
