The Hoover Dam, Lights Out, Population Reduction Connections Posted: 24 May 2022 06:04 AM PDT By now you have probably heard about Lake Mead and it’s lowering lake level. It is so bad that they are now saying that the power generating station at the Hoover Dam is only a day away from going from 17 generators to only 5 generators because of the dropping lake level. The Hoover Dam provides a lot of electricity for the West Coast area. If she goes down to only 5 generators, will this cause cascading power outages out West and or to other parts of the country? This article seems to indicate that due to various situations we will see power outages this summer; Half of America to go dark this summer due to Biden’s “Build Blackouts Better”. Rolling blackouts from the Great Lakes to the West Coast are expected to be a common occurrence this year, according to Bloomberg, citing a new report from the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC), a regulatory body that manages the stability of the electrical grid. NERC is warning that the West Coast especially will be extremely strained during the warmest months of the year. Historic drought conditions reduce hydroelectric power generation due to decreasing reservoir levels. This is already occurring at the Hoover Dam, which is just days away from dropping below 1,050 feet (if it has not already). And you know what happens when people lose electricity--people die. And the longer the power is off the deaths increase exponentially. FULL ARTICLE AT: The Hoover Dam, Lights Out, Population Reduction Connections |
