California has avoided more heatwave-driven rolling blackouts so far this week via energy conservation, demand response, backup power and batteries. Could this be a lesson in meeting long-term grid reliability challenges as clean energy grows in scale?https://bit.ly/3haRWJi

Here are marginal emission factors for all zones in New York State averaged across 2015-2016 by month, day-of-week, and hour-of-day. Note: 6am is pretty clean. Our problem is afternoon and evening. Solar will address afternoon, wind will address night and winter.pic.twitter.com/QVFjARaEoH
You will notice that NY's marginal emissions over time are the inverse of what you showed for California. This is because we have a very different generation mix -- ours is more like other Northeast states, not California. What is true in California is not necessarily true here.

Is there a cut of that data by hour, for each month? Heat pump emissions are all about the house of 5am to about 9am in the winter.

Does the image below do what you're looking for? This image shows, for each of New York's 11 zones, the relative mean marginal emissions by hour of day for each month of the year. (Note: Each zone's plot is independent. Thus, colors are zone specific.)

I will just say again, my only point is that there are no silver bullets. We seem to be arguing about different things. My only point remains that while electrification is necessary to get to zero. So is a bunch of other stuff. We also do a ton of work in NY...
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
