labradore charts the total electricity output from Nalcor, less Churchill Falls, Menihek and a few other bits and pieces.
Note that thermal generation – mostly Holyrood has been less than 20% of the total in four of the past five years. Total generation in 2010 was about 5,000 gigawatts compared to more than 6,300 in 2002.
That would mean – for those who are a little slow on a Monday – that demand has dropped dramatically in the past eight years.
That is most definitely not what Nalcor and the current provincial government have been pretending in their obsession with building an Empire of Public Debt.
