They did it because they could do it and it was better than a small gen-set.I am wondering if there is still the same advantages, certainly not in every place. You have to have a mountain and two bodies of water, and a source of nocturnal spare energy. There may be some places where nocturnal surplus in not available. Big Server farms never sleep. City lights are more numerous and more powerful, some places have industries (such as aluminmium maikng that are energy intensive and never sleep. It is a good solution but may not be the best, esp with solar power coming on line. Such power sources do not have nocturnal surplus. ROARING |
