EDIT: pedantic physics moment. When I say "power" consumed I actually mean the time integral of power over the course of a year, i.e. energy, expressed as GWh
- colechristensen 2y agoI wrote "at this moment", which meant instantaneously, not overall, or for 2021 as there has been very fast buildout. Data can be found here: https://www.caiso.com/todays-outlook/supply https://www.caiso.com/todays-outlook/supply It has gone up a couple of points since I posted.
