We dont' need any energy plants, China does.Technically, today we have 7 too many plants. In the future we'll even out. Why you say? Did he finally go nuts? No, it's just the phantom load. Keep something plugged in and turned off, it's still humming away a little bit. Sure if i keep my printer plugged in, but turned off it's not taking a lot of energy. But as our conservative friend who deosn't get the emissions things on here doens't grasp, it's the marco aspect. One printer, not much energy(or any appliance). But times it by 50 billion turned off printers, you got a massive effect. And of course power leakage, whatever the figure for that must be. They estimate we're operating 6 or 7 power plants just because we have things plugged in that we don't use having a small load still being used. Will we start a tv public awareness campaign for this? NOPE. Can't make money. More profitable to inflate the prices and build more. |
