Question

During which type of solar weather would one predict power grid operations on Earth could degrade?(1 point)

Answer 1

Power grid operations on Earth could degrade during geomagnetic storms, which are caused by solar weather events such as coronal mass ejections (CMEs) or high-speed solar wind streams. These storms can induce geomagnetic currents that can overload power lines and transformers, potentially leading to disruptions in electrical systems.
