An interesting read Damon! I was reading a pdf file on "cold starting" power stations last night and the need for power to already exist on the grid for them to run, and that not all stations have cold start capabilities. This could help prevent them going offline to begin with because they'd never be running!!! Conservation... thats what its all about.
