"A shooting that damaged two power substations in a North Carolina county, leaving thousands of homes without power, has been deemed a "targeted" attack, as officials warn of threats to the nationwide infrastructure." @GavinNewsom we must #SaveSolar 1/4 🧵usatoday.com/story/news/nat…
If @californiapuc adopts proposal to cut rooftop #SOLAR incentives by 75% local energy solutions become unaffordable. CA residents could have long power loses bcuz #utility grid is vulnerable to extreme weather from #climatechange, targeted or cyber attacks. #SaveSolar 2/4
#utility infrastructure is vulnerable to events that could take down large portions of grid. Local solutions like rooftop #SOLAR/microgrids/community solar w/batteries provide #resilience by supplying power to residents and grid when grid goes down. @GavinNewsom #SaveSolar 3/4
#utilities and their regulators are seeing the value in Virtual Power plants (microgrid or rooftop #solar w/ battery) to solve peak energy needs, directly replace retiring fossil fuel power plants, and compete with traditional generation assets. @GavinNewsom please #SaveSolar 4/4
