And one more thing. Power plants run regardless of use. They don't cut on and off per hourly demand. They run on anticipated demand. A shutdown is an overhaul operation. Whether you use the power or not the plant runs based on the anticipated and not actual demand.

Texas for example has had fewer brown and blackouts since 2020 due to load balancing of Bitcoin data centers that can shut down and reroute power and have increased the demand for power which has put better sub stations in areas that needed them.

The government run power plants are not included for reasons of national security data so there is that, too. The assumption is that the bases are using the civilian grid and they are but they also use their own plants. We have one in my city that burns our trash, makes potash and powers a base that is 400 years old.

If I'm wrong I would be very surprised and I'll admit it.
