    7:13 - 7:38 It was mentioned that the stability of the grid was challenged as wind turbines in Oklahoma and Kansas were not moving (no wind for a while) and solar energy could not be harvested due to the long period of cloudiness. Thus, the regional energy demand stressed (pulled more than planned from) the regionally available pool of natural gas supply. In context of diversifying our local energy sources; what is CU's take on the reemerging buzz on hydrogen fuel cells? ... or are hydrogen fuel cells viewed as more of an option for more rural areas outside of the Springfield "metro" area?

    This is how they precipitate rain by many of these plants going off simultaneously. There are literally over a hundred patents on weather modification and many that are currently in use. Haarp technology emitted from cell towers is how they move large storm systems dumping rain in target locations. Geo engineering is key to understanding the true nature of “climate change”.

Therefore not getting paid for all those hours of work. Doing 2,3,4,5 days work in a day. No pension,no health benefits... So go faster for less. Those old timers pension health benefits. Doing fraction of work completed... Think about.

      That is a great question and there are two parts to the answer. First, James River Power Station has reached a point that it is beyond it's useful life. The cost to upkeep and run it is expensive largely because the units are old and inefficient. Just like an old heater or a/c unit on your home becomes over time or an old car that continually needs maintenance. The parts become harder to find and you only get a fraction of the efficiency that you would get with newer models. Second, CU has enough generation at John Twitty Energy Center, six natural gas fired turbines, the wind farms, the solar farm, and a couple other smaller green power generating commodities that it also negates the need for these units to remain online. We also have access to the market to purchase electricity as needed. If we did continue to run the units at JRPS, it would force up the costs of customers electric bill due to higher costs to run them. I hope that helps answer your question!
