Didn’t like the blackouts? Better get used to them | Jon Caldara

I usually write this column at home. That was impossible this time, since I was one of the lucky 110,000 households without power for a full day during the recent windstorms.
For those of you who shared this magical experience, congratulations — you’ve now had a sneak preview of Colorado’s 100% renewable energy lifestyle. No waiting. No reservation required.
For us fortunate 110,000, the reality of “unreliable energy” arrived quickly: The house goes dark; people get cold; refrigerated food and medicines quietly die; folks on home oxygen machines fumble around in the dark for backup tanks; no cooked meals; garage doors refuse to open; Teslas sit silently, judging their owners, and worst of all — no electronic entertainment.
Nirvana. Absolute green renewable Nirvana.
