2 thoughts on “Commentary | To prevent blackouts, California needs more clean energy – and a bigger, better run grid

  1. Ms Aggarwal makes a compelling argument that California should accelerate its investment in its electrical grid. Be it through green sources or traditional ones, the state needs a more reliable backbone for future growth. However, as we watch the news for the next rolling black out, it is clear that the grid is not something we should further burden. Piedmont’s REACH code ideas, should they pass vote muster, would do exactly that.

  2. While I disagree with the author’s solution, her description of California’s frail grid is exactly why the Piedmont Reach codes need to be tabled. Don’t make Piedmont even more vulnerable to what lies ahead than it already is.
