On Wednesday, the Democrat held a press conference to address the wavering power grid.<\/p>\n<p>This came after Tuesday\u2019s demand for 52,000 megawatts set a record as resident experienced triple digit temperatures. Demand is only expected to climb as high as 78,000 megawatts in the coming years as the state has backed itself into a corner to go completely green by 2045.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cWe\u2019ll do our part to make sure we never have to go through this again,\u201d stated the governor. \u201cAnd that\u2019s the continued transition to more battery storage, to transition to more energy and backup supply, new strategic reserve that we got through the legislature, some $4.2 billion was just passed, will provide an additional 4000 megawatts by 2024.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Newsom confirmed the state\u2019s independent system operator has not called for any load reductions. As the governor\u2019s energy policies have really put Californians in a bind, one new pilot program could provide relief.
