Who has? I've lived in Nebraska, Colorado, Florida and Texas and have never had rolling blackouts. My co-op power company is still not having rolling blackouts but everyone else in Texas is experiencing them.
Texas had them in April 2006 and California has had them for years. There has been something a lack of investment in both generation and grid in certain US regions for the last 20 years.
I don't see a history of consistent rolling blackouts except in emergency situations. http://www.google.com/search?source...resnum=11&ved=0CGMQ5wIwCg&fp=e3908a84ed15d2fe Regardless, it is the blocking of new plants in this area by the Feds that has let the situation here become dire. http://www.prisonplanet.com/obamas-blocking-of-new-power-plants-triggers-nationwide-blackouts.html
