Btw, wind's strong periods are around 3-5 pm AND am. You will find that wind tends to kick when we need it most. Solar depends how oriented. I saw lennar homes that split solar panels between south ( great ) and North ( fucking insane ). It was obvious they were simply putting them up without caring if it was useful.
Actually, that was last year, and due to decent winds. Sadly, if these fires go all summer then wind and solar will plummet, it will drive the use of coal back up.
ROFL.
Less than 50% of Colorado's electricity comes from coal. Just 5 years ago, we got 65%. BUT, wind has really come on strong, so, it is dropping.
But, I agree with you otherwise.
Cars like Tesla are called normally called EVs. Hybrids are called Plug-ins, PEV, HEV, etc. Those that push Hybrids, will then call real EVs, BEVs for Battery EV.
Kind of silly, but that is what happens when you get fucking MBAs in the field.
Note that most utilities are offering a separate package for car charging. They have their own meters, own lines, etc. And the rates typically are below.10 / kwh (down to.03 / kwh ) for nighttime charging, BUT can be.20 or even.45 / KWH for daytime charging (hawaii).
The fact is, that numerous studies have said that grid AND energy is plenty IFF less than 15% of all vehicles charge in the high time (0900 - 2100). So, if decent range EVs are sold AND utilities will charge smart (drop the price of electricity in middle of the night, while charging more for daytime charges), then this will actually help utilities and lower ALL OF OUR RATES.
Actually, if VW designs these right, they will be charging in the middle of the night. IOW, they will simply use the grossly underutilized grid and power plants from that time.
In addition, this will enable multiple power companies to go ahead and invest into energy plants for you. Hopefully, they will be smart and do nukes so that you can handle your AC loads.
Sadly, so far, VW has sucked ICE tail pipes will designing their crappy EVs. Basically, if they continue on that path, then in 2 years, it will not matter. They will not be selling ANY cars.
Basically, WOW operates in same way, except that the private company runs fiber to the home, rather than the city.
Regardless, they have multiple ISP, TV,and Phone providers that end users can pick from.
It should 75-100% salary for the duration of the time for those laid off or fired without cause, but, it should also be 50% for those fired with cause. After all, it is still in effect.
that is the problem with both major parties. It is NOT members that choose. It is the leaders that choose. In trumps case, this was SOOOO overwhelming, and the minions HATED the choices presented against Trump.
But what surprises me, is that Sander is NOT a dem, and yet, he was (is) close to being the candidate.
Oddly, he shows up as having a better chance of winning. In light of his not caring about the deficits, I am amazed.
No, Trump's many policy claims rates him as a NAZI, which is why even the kock bros call him one.
And it is bothersome that you would think that a NAZI fascists is actually better than somebody like Hillary.
In fact, it is fucking scary that you claim that, in light of Trump's backing by the KKK and NAZIs, and Trump, as well as a number of GOP supporting that backing. It says that fascism is alive and well within the GOP.
BTW, I am not voting in Hillary. She is NOT a good choice. I am voting for lawerence lessig or Gary Johnson.
The ONLY way that I would vote for Hillary is if Colorado turns into a true battleground state and it appears that trump has a chance.
No, I think that this is all BS. I can not stand what the fucking GOP is doing, and what O is doing in return. This is destroying america. The GD GOP should be doing their jobs. As it is, the more control that they have had of CONgress, then worse things have gotten. That is why it is very likely that for the GD dems are going to have MAJOR control of DC for the next 4-8 years.
Though to be honest, if Assange has SOMETHING real, and not just the major lies that he comes up all the time, then it might give trump a chance.
The GOP has technically had CONgress in session since 2012. They have kept 1 CONgress critter at both the senate and the house so that O could not appoint judges, ppl. He did so, because he said that this was total BS (and he is correct). However, SCOTUS said that no, the constitution says that while in session, that president can NOT appoint. So, to date, that is the ONLY unconstitutional thing that O has done, even though the GOP regularly accuse him of numerous BS things. For example, he has the rights to do what he did with the illegals. Sadly, it is not the right thing to do. Instead, the fucking GOP should be doing their GD jobs and putting forward bills to solve this. And it will require a simple compromise.
Of Libya? That was italy and France that pushed O to help them. O wanted to follow what the DOD said which is that this was a HORRIBLE idea ( and they were right ).
Please explain How does the US Constitution OR the U.N. Charter say that the secretary of state can not say that she thinks that we should go to war?
If Hillary did not pull a W and lie and cheat on evidence, then she has done nothing illegal in any way.
Actually, back in the 90s, I was teaching all around the nation. I recall several highways that had stop lights on them, BUT, I think that they were in the process of building new portions of them outside of the town, to avoid those stop lights. And yeah, any freeway going through denver, houston, chicago, etc will hit traffic so bad that you come to a stop.
you will note that I spoke about putting motors on the trailers in an earlier posting. Imagine what happens if you do regen from the tractor (which is up-front,but nothing from the rear)? You run the risk of jack-knife particularly in Colorado and other locations (you do 80 MPH down a 8% grade and then tap the brakes and you can watch the trailer go right by you).
how odd. It raises the price to have multiples made? Somebody better tell SpaceX that they need to change their falcon 9 to look more like Atlas, Delta, and Arianne, so that they can get their prices lower those groups have.
Actually, a single large engine that is forced to run at various speeds is far more INEFFICIENT. Having say 3 engine/gens run at a set speed, and being able to take them off and on is by far the most efficient that you can get on this. Otherwise, with varying speeds in the engine, your efficiencies really go all over the board. That is why all of the diesel have so many speeds in their transmissions. They are trying to run them at a single small range so as to improve their efficiency.
Absolutely nothing wrong with fracking in the right places. In fact, the far left's fear of this is nothing less than insane and shows that they are as anti-science as the far right.
well, since I am neither dem nor GOP, I am not sure how you folks run your garbage. However, from what I see, it will be near impossible for Sanders to win it.
depends on what you are up to. If you support Russia, North Korea, China, Iran, etc and support their choice, which is Trump, then they just did this at the right time. Sanders will likely run as 3rd party due to this and that will give trump a chance that he never had.
O pulled the same shit as the GOP does. Basically, he declared that it was not a treaty and set it up to by pass them. The exact same way that the GOP keeps one of their lackies sitting in 'CONgress', to keep it in session.
Personally, I think that both major parties are a bunch of losers, but esp the GOP for starting this BS.

You obviously do not understand how regen braking work.
As you said, jake brakes DO use the engine/transmission to slow down. You are not hurting the vehicle in doing it. OTOH, you ARE hurting the ears of all those around the outside of the truck, esp. when somebody is sleeping.
Now, as to regen braking. it is nothing more than turning a motor into a generator. The ONLY way that it will be turned into a slab is IFF the motor would have been turned into a slab of metal going UP the hill. And the 401 and I-75 are little bitty moleholes. When you have 3-5 km VERTICAL to go, and 300m falls if you go off the road, and are traveling at 100-120 KMPH, then let me know about things.
As to Canada, here are your dangerous roads. Most of those are conidered easy here in Colorado.
And here America's most dangerous roads. Notice the very high roads in our mountains and the very steep drops for those couple of trucks/cars each year that buys the darwin awards?
how odd. It raises the price to have multiples made? Somebody better tell SpaceX that they need to change their falcon 9 to look more like Atlas, Delta, and Arianne, so that they can get their prices lower those groups have.

Nope. Not a dem, but she has won already.
