What I would really like to see is when a paper or a TV news program gets something wrong it makes the correction as prominent as the original story Some gratitude, you raise the bar on me. <g> Karen

Due on line this year in Aug. Oct., and Dec. are plants producing 320, 40, 40, 51, and 1,048, totalling 2,000 mHw. In 2002 another 2,000 mHw and in 2003 about 3700 mHw. That should take care of any importation issues, notwithstanding the transmission difficulties between north and south. Hard to tell about surpluses. Only about 5,000 mHw are off line for service, scheduled or unscheduled. Currently the surplus is a minimum 6,000 mHw (at highest demand period) and imports are 3,500 mHw. Shipping surplus power around is difficult. Plants such as the one that services most of Huntington Beach, where I live, have fairly low capacity lines to export power. If we conserved and AES wanted to sell the excess the lines may not be able to carry it.
