electricity is not meant to be stored in large capacities

solar and wind are local additions for household needs or for outstanding locations only


This is incorrect. Nuclear is good for baseline but cant be readily ramped up and down. Unless we have a storage solution or an additional method to be deployed for peak times nuclear will fail to meet our power needs alone.

The real solution is going to be some combination of storage and multiple methods depending on the needs of the area and availability of resources.

Storage is the problem. Solar and wind are nice for supplemental power but they can’t do much for night, and currently can’t keep up with demands during the day.

They are a great help but we need something more potent than solar/wind.

Making the lights/appliances/etc more efficient with the power they consume is also very helpful i.e. LED lighting.


Not to mention making houses and apartments that don't need heating. Led lights have come along way indeed amongst many things which don't need as much energy.
If you have a competent world with efficient and environmentally friendly lifestyle then population can keep increasing. But the dumb and poor multiply like rats to compensate

as i said in the post you quoted, volatile, time related stuff like household energy can be provided by renewables

the overwhelming bulk is baseload however, which will increase in the future (the electrification of things will continue)

simplest example are electric cars and i am gonna ignore the fact that charging millions of these is literally impossible in any existing power grid right now

with people wanting to charge their vehicles over night, the demand for stable and reliable supply will multiply during a time where the demand has been the lowest so far

baseload is more important than ever

Electric cars can actually be used as a storage mechanism. People charge their cars and some portion of the battery can be discharged back to the grid. If workplaces install charging stations that can help too.

Use a fake pandemic to get people to take a vaccine antidote and then spray sterilization chemtrails to defertilize all of the conservatives who refused the antidote.



I would probably be happy if this happened not gunna lie

this is a fancy way of saying that electricity will get rationed

the range of these cars is shitty enough

The electric car people never manage to mention the $/mwh of their stupid ideas. Oil is still cheaper even with externalities included.

Forget about nuclear fusion, decades after first tokamak was made we still have no idea how to prevent disruptions in the plasma to occur (C.Reux thesis for thoses who can read)

:rofl: hahahahahahah you are hilarious. they do pollute the most, india and china, lmao.


I've explained to you the reasons why they "seem" to pollute the most, but accordingly to your single digit IQ you didn't listen. may god have mercy on your soul brother

ever wondered how canada can bring electricity on thousands of kilometers without losing more than 1% charge over 1000 km ? it's pretty simple though most countries missed it lmao

nah, you didn't explain anything. it's their fault, they are not collaborating with other countries. they are criminal regimes against the whole world, not only themselves.
