Episode notes
Unprecedented US Power Shortage
- America faces an unprecedented electric power shortage despite decades of abundant supply.
- The shortage is a self-inflicted consequence of premature shutdowns of reliable power plants in favor of intermittent renewables.

- This creates vulnerability to power drops especially during high demand, risking blackouts.
