California got in the same situation and did rolling brown outs. They should have done this in India. But instead, they blew out the O-ring like a new "cute" inmate at Supermax fed penitentiary.

This would be ultra suck, and I have been in storm-caused black outs before.

like alybaba said, india/pakistan/etc. do rolling blackouts all the time... 1 hr a day to many hours a day depending on your block/area

the only difference here was that it was lengthy and coevered a huge expanse of the country all at once

They could do what China did when it's electrical needs exploded. Build coal-powered plants without care for emissions to meet electrical demands.
