Follow The Money: Utilities Are Freaking Out!

Views: 667
Because, after rising for 100 years,
. . . electricity demand is flat,
. . . causing, Utilities to freak out, and
. . . it's all our fault.

Demand for utility power has been flat for 10 years, and
. . . most forecasts expect it to stay that way.
The die was cast around 1998,
. . . when GDP growth, and
. . . electricity demand growth,
. . . became “decoupled!”

Energy efficiency, and
. . . distributed (customer-owned) energy generation,
. . . holds down demand.

“TVA now expects to sell,
. . . 13% less power in 2027,
. . . than it did 2 decades earlier."
