Paul#NowWatching Bad Channels (1992) 🎬 This movie has zero budget and is stupid buts incredibly fun. A bad boy radio DJ broadcasts his rock/metal show nationally and attracts the attention of aliens. They decide to use him and the music on his show to shrink local women and put them in jars. Yes you read that right. #movies #horrormovies #scifi #parody #comed

#ComEd's #V2G pilot #school #buses will be charged at night when #electricity costs are at their lowest, but will be used as an extension of the grid during the day between runs. The battery capacity will stabilize the grid and reduce the chance of a blackout. If an outage does happen, the chargers themselves would store enough energy for the school buses to top off their batteries.

@hacks4pancakes Here's some analysis I found: https://blog.yesenergy.com/yeblog/what-drove-the-recent-pjm-power-price-spike
Reasons for the price volatility include colder temperatures across the entire market combined with low output from wind farms. Temperatures were 10 to 30 degrees lower than the previous week.
With fewer plants already online, power price spikes are necessary to incentivize the remaining generators to increase their output to meet the heating load.
