Green Storm

Going green isn't easy:

In an effort to make the “woke” town completely self-sufficient, Transgrid even tried to shut down and decommission the town’s two emergency diesel generators. Advocates of the plan argue that Broken Hill will serve as a blueprint the the rest of the world to comply with the “Net Zero” goals of the World Economic Forum (WEF). However, the experiment lasted just two weeks. According to Australia’s ABC, a windstorm brought down seven supporting transmission towers. Although Broken Hill had held on to its backup generators, one was being serviced. The other generator failed under the sudden demand. “There was only one generator that was put under extreme amount of load,” Mayor Tom Kennedy said in a statement. “Once that was put under load, that also tripped out and we were in a situation where some people in town were without power for 48 hours, others just over 24 hours. “It was really lack of maintenance on generators that are worth probably $50 million each.”

And a lack of common sense...
