nothing is ripped out because it's only a ban for new construction, which is pretty rare in most of ca actually. In LA in particular, homes are never torn down and rebuilt because there are so many restrictions that apply to new construction but not grandfathered homes. If the rate of new construction is low, then hopefully renewables plus batteries will be able to keep up with increased nighttime demand.
