minus-squareAdmiral Patrick@dubvee.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up25·1 年前That’s 10% more than I would have thought, and 70% less than we need. Still a good start, and hopefully the momentum keeps up.
minus-squareDarkThoughts@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up8·1 年前This is just for regular electricity generation, not total power needed. So you need much more than that you think you do, based on those numbers.
minus-squarethreelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 年前Are you referring to sectors of energy consumption which have not yet electrified? What are the biggest consumers there?
minus-squareDarkThoughts@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 年前In the US I think it is the transport sector, or it is at least very close to the industrial sector. Much more than other countries due to how they ruined their cities, which made them incredibly car dependent.
