I guess @Tiberius was wrong.

 

Who'd a thunk it ?

From the article:

“The new standards will also require only a small portion of models to make modest improvements to their energy efficiency to match the level of efficiency already demonstrated by the majority of the market today,” the agency said in its January press release announcing the rule. “For example, approximately 97 percent of gas stove models and 77 percent of smooth electric stove models on the market already meet these standards.”

 

So they're not banning gas stoves after all. Or even "going after" gas stoves.

They may be "going after" a tiny portion of gas (and electric) stoves that are very energy inefficient. But The Daily Caller isn't about to tweet out "Biden Administration Tightens Gas/Electric Stove Standards; New Rule to Affect Only 3% of Gas Stoves."

This new Electrical future is going to be fun 

 

Increase electricity usage 10-50 times.

 

Decommission nuke plants while transitioning to unstable sources such as solar and wind.

 

 

 

The math definitely adds up.

Bloom Energy. Symbol BE.

Provides solid oxide fuel cells that use either natural gas or hydrogen to provide reliable, on site electricity.

Cost competitive with utility companies. Far more reliable. Much "greener."

sounds interesting. are they getting the green and infrastructure cash? IE, tax rebates.

 

cause right now it seems to be only flowing to solar and wind.

 

 

 

Any way the numbers don't add up, unless we can increase electricity output to match the increase in demand.

 

AI is already eating electricity and polluting at the level of a small city.  and they just started.

The fed and state rebates make it profitable for the owners.
