@Napoleon Lee Scott watch your profanity
The power company should be monitoring their own lines, looking at how much electricity their customers are consuming, and then turning up or down the production at their power plants in accordance with the demands of their own electric grid.
that isn't the way a grid works
If they're not producing enough power for their grid, then they need to buy it from a rival company.
@wacka this is some babylon bee shit
no one company can provide enough constantly to meet their demand
if they wanted to do so, they would throw a TON of power AWAY
Not for the whole nation, no, but for a neighborhood or a small town absolutely.
remember when the KKK used to go round saying sht like "I dont care if your black or not"
"if they wanted to do so, they would throw a TON of power AWAY"
You don't have to run your power plant at 100% all the fucking time.
because the moment everyone decided to turn on the ac units, their grid would go offline due to lack of capacity
u DO!
u cannot STORE power
it is 'on demand'
If your power plant is not fucking retarded, then you should be able to turn up or down the generation in accordance with what your customers are pulling.
then all that capacity is wasted
this is the same concept of insurance of any sort
neither does anyone else
Then produce minimum power levels and buy the rest from other companies.
No capacity wastage, and you buy anything you're running short on from someone else.
so a centralized 'bank' is established allowing a constant suppply with varying load
dayum euro is dropping massively against the £
down 200pips this week so far
the more people pulling from the centeral bank then easier it is to match those not pulling at a given moment with those who ARE pulling in that same moment using the same, stable bank without adding more
...because having your power plant run at 50% will end the whole fucking world. Obviously.
the smaller the bank, the HARDER that balance and the more 'reserves; are required just in ccase
it WILL bankrupt 95% of power generation companies, yes
The private sector internet infrastructure has already worked that out, @ManAnimal.
Some regulations smooth it out, sure, but it's all private sector.
they have not; they rely on the grid system
Google owns a switching center. Federally regulated, privately owned.
That's how data makes it from one internet company's lines to another's.
the grid is the system that allows any SINGLE company to minimize the number of reserve KW they keep idle
you fucking moron, carl, seriously
you say it within 20 seconds
you dont even know what youre talking about
truscum are real trans people aka transmedicalists. transmeds arent fucking insane, like the tucutes that was harassing contrapoints.
the tucutes are the ones you think encompass all that is trans. helicopter meme? that was started off the image that tucutes show the world (seriously its a 2012 joke still being used to misrepresent actual trans people. tucutes are literally what ruins the public image of what transgender means.)
hope the £ drops a bit so I can add more shorts on the euro
