Zues- More on the subject. Why do you think SCE & PCG in a regulated environment would have had better luck siting plants than the nimble IPP's?

Perhaps someone who really wants to know should ask the IPP's for proof of plants they tried to site in CA but were denied over the last 5 years. I suspect this would reveal the depths of BANANA & NIMBY's costs.

Refineries, electric transmission lines, power plants, petro distribution lines all need to be built in CA. The tip of the iceberg is only now on the horizon and collision is almost inevitable. Good luck, many of the third world immigrants to California will feel right at home with the lights going out all the time and other evidence of poor government abounding.

There are dozens's of companies willing to compete to produce/sell electricity in CA. Do you suppose they are all conspiring to withhold supply?
