Reply to comment by northursalia in Why does this state seem to lose power so frequently? It’s always related to downed power lines from trees? Or is this a grid issue? by JayBisky

The question was why does NH lose power? The answer is because the power lines are not underground. The cost associated with fixing an outdated and ineffective infrastructure wasn’t part of the question. Or answer.

Relax.

Pointing out a fault is not a need to relax, it is being grounded in reality. There are more solutions than the one of burying the lines, such as removing trees that encroach on the lines. One is exponentially less expensive than the other. Expense is a factor regardless, since costs will be passed to ratepayers. This isn't a decision in a vacuum. If it wasn't, why not say the solution is to develop wireless power or put a fusion reactor in every home?

I didn’t say the state or tax payers should do anything. I didn’t suggest a solution. I simply responded to the question.

I hope you get a hug today.
