power to the corporations - all in one solar street light

The Trump administration has the desire to privatize most of the power grid.
Earlier this year, the idea of billions of dollars was put forward in the federal budget, but there was no progress.
Still, discussions are continuing on the rescue of the coal, gas and nuclear power industries --
Even if someone talks about it, there is no real policy that comes up that sees the grid as a national security issue.
The biggest national concern of the Trump administration is energy independence, the return of US coal and the success of US business growth.
The background here is simple: power usage is increasing dramatically, although people have found a variety of water sources from a variety of nature and humans. made concerns.
All these smartphones and plug-and-plug portable devices, social media, the Internet
Connected appliances, cars and toys have greatly increased demand for electricity.
At the same time, the dangers of strong hurricanes and storms, cold winters, power grid failures in Puerto Rico and international cyber attacks testing the grid all point to weaknesses in regional and national power systems.
The downside is that the energy is coal and natural gas, about 30% each, about 20% of nuclear energy, or renewable energy sources such as solar and wind occupy the rest.
Once the turbines of the power plant start production, the electronics will go through the physical wires in the areas where electricity is shared and traded on a daily basis and in the state grid.
That's why in the event of a power outage or a power outage, the various regional grids actually transfer the power output to another area.
From the impact of climate change, the whole dialogue
Or not really, as far as the Trump administration is concerned.
But no one can deny it.
Global demand for electricity is increasing.
This demand makes it increasingly vulnerable to attacks on power plants, power grids and means of production.
Politically, Trump has gained support in coal.
In the development of renewable energy, production areas, and attempts to attract these sectors, as well as natural gas production and oil.
But, apart from wanting more, the government seems to think that the answer to any energy issue will come from privatization.
Columnist Michael Hiltzik has written a lot about power in the Los Angeles Times.
On February, he wrote "a proposal to privatize the government --

High-quarter
Voltage transmission lines in a region including California, Washington State and Oregon serve more than 13.
5 million customers.
"According to an authoritative estimate, any such sale will increase transmission costs by 26%-44%.
The proposal is fading away, but consideration for similar privatization issues continues while trying to turn the US energy dollar back into coal and gas.
Trump mainly deals with energy and electricity as a function of commercial costs and excessive regulation.
Earlier this year, Trump said at a trade conference, "because of what we do, our energy prices are so low, our electricity costs are so low, other countries will not be able to compete with us.
We really did a great job of letting them down.
Many of this has to do with tax cuts, but many other things.
In fact, according to fact-finding, electricity prices rose in Trump's first year.

Including manufacturerswas 6.
58 cents per kilowatt
January 2017 and 6 hours.
79 cents per kilowatt hour in November
According to the latest data from the Energy Information Administration, this figure has increased by more than 3%.
Still, price is not a strategy.
For example, an industry newsletter noted that the White House's various infrastructure plans discussed general investments in roads, railways, water, water and electricity, and education.
"However, silence can be deafening when it comes to any expenditure on power transmission and distribution systems. . .
In fact, it also advocates the sale of several large transmission assets owned by the federal government.
These proposed saleable assets include the transmission systems of the Western Power Authority, the Tennessee Valley Authority, the Southwest Power Authority and the Bonneville Power Authority.
At the same time, cyber attacks on power plants continue to attract attention.
NPR reports that the government informed power companies last summer that Russia used common hacking technologies such as malware and spear to carry out what the Department of Homeland Security called a "multi-level invasion campaign" against utilities"phishing.
Hackers were able to access the control system of at least one power plant.
In general, it seems that this response is more of a private effort than a direct action by the government.
According to Axios, the Trump administration is directing the government to support financially difficult coal and nuclear power plants to ensure the resilience and reliability of the grid.
The main argument here is solar energy. and wind-
Due to changes in the weather, the energy generated is not "elastic ".
In short, the government's policy is very consistent with its support for renewable energy coal and gas and regards the whole issue as a commercial pricing issue.
