I don't understand policies like this....well I do, but I don't get why people think it's anything but a farce.
What's the ultimate plan here....every stops excess consumption during peak times? So then they choose to use their peak consumption during non-peak times....and turn that into the "new" peak time?
It's all a big smoke show, to make it seem like somebody is doing something. It's all just so DTE, Consumers...whomever can say "well we instituted new energy saving policies", disregarding that policy is BS.
Don't even get started on the "shift" to electric stuff. Electric ranges, electric heat...etc. All on an energy grid that barley holds on to what the demand is now. Cries about crude oil energy production ruining the county so ELECTRICITY FTW. Same old, same old. Still no talk about making that electricity since nuclear power bad even though is 5x more efficient than solar and wind. Nobody has figured out how to not kill thousands of acres of land with solar farms, or create a windmill that saves more energy than it costs to produce and maintain. Let alone the storage of that energy. It's all the same old argument that hasn't been changed in at least 15 years. (probably longer).
