That need for balance is true of electric power grids, too. Similar mismatches in supply and demand contributed to massive cascading blackouts in August 2003 in the northeastern United States and Canada, in July 2012 in India , and in March 2019 in Venezuela. unprecedented and deadly winter freeze.

Smart grids, for example, make it easier and cheaper to replace fossil-fired power with renewables without jeopardizing the reliability of the energy system. Solar photovoltaic systems continued to be installed at a record pace, contrary to many expectations. Alongside these grim messages there are also positive developments.
