“In this study, [they] model spatiotemporal heterogeneity and incorporate it into optimizing the location of substations. The optimized substation placement ensures electrical service coverage for over 99% of the area during peak power usage seasons, compared to the current coverage of 72%...”

Google's latest #innovation to prevent #outages is an #SRE love letter wrapped in buzzwords and sprinkled with acronyms like #STPA and #Prodverbs 🎩🔍. Apparently, teaching a new method involves rehashing 20 years of "lessons" that somehow didn't prevent past outages 🚨. But hey, who doesn't love a good old-fashioned #reliability #theory seminar when your server's on fire? 🔥🤔

The joint appearance was also a high-profile #embarrassment for #Musk’s #X, which has faced numerous #outages since his takeover & suffered from a server #meltdown during a presidential campaign launch last year.
#ElonMusk billed the conversation w/ #Trump as “unscripted w/no limits on subject matter.” But during much of the discussion, he focused on comfortable topics for Trump….He also let Trump deliver his preferred talking points & a stream of false statements [#lies]….

June 8: "CenterPoint outage tracker map will return after it “failed” customers in May... “Yeah. We know we didn’t meet customer expectations when that wasn’t available, when they needed it most. And that’s not acceptable to us or to our customers. We understand that. There was a tremendous amount of traffic on that website, more than it was designed for, and it failed. We’re working on a replacement project. That will have a new and improved outage tracker that will not have that same failure,"

" #US seeing surge of climate-related power outages, report says

Power #outages in the US are surging, as climate-related #extreme #weather strain an already burdened energy #grid.

Over the last decade, severe #storm outages increased by 74% compared with the previous 10 years.

High #winds, #rains, winter storms and tropical #cyclones including #hurricanes, accounted for 80% of all power interruptions over the last 20 years, a new report from non-profit research group Climate Central shows."
