Op-Ed: When The Power Goes Out, Natural Gas Still Works

by

By THOMAS TIERNEY
Los Alamos

Yesterday’s town-wide power outage reminded Los Alamos how completely modern life depends upon electricity. The lights went out, internet service stopped, electric stovetops went cold, garage doors froze shut, and many residents suddenly lost the ability to prepare a warm meal.

County leaders should keep that reality firmly in mind as they discuss restricting or eliminating natural gas appliances for residential cooking.

Los Alamos experiences recurring power outages. Wind, snow, wildfire mitigation efforts, equipment failures, and grid instability Read More
