On the GB grid, the "TV pickup" remains a real effect, in the middle of and and the end of popular TV programmes and sports events. And guess what: those spikes are predicted by the grid operators. So they are not "sudden" in the strict sense of the word.
You could say a goal in soccer is unpredictable and during the slow motion repeats the wife goes into the kitchen and opens the fridge and 1 minute later hundred thousands of fridges start cooling. But then again: you have half a minute or even a minute time until that happens.
A SmartMeter and SmartCharger from Siemens, obviously you need an internet connection, and a power company involved in using your SmartMeter/SmartCharger.
That means it hasn't been done. I don't give a shit about research projects. If it was a 1000 cars around 2005, then most certainly there are far more now.
and still isn't anything widely available to power my home from an EV traction battery despite it being technologically not all that challenging. This is for 90% of the world completely irrelevant. Either we have no power outages (Europe), or if there is one: you are in much deeper shit than just having no power (Asia).
Give it a few more years and you can buy your power to local home adapter in the shops around you.
Making coke from oil does not make any sense at all, unless as in petcoke it is the remaining waste product. https://www.worldcoal.org/file... (70% of all COAL used in steel production... not even mentioning how much coke is coming form other sources)
Why you get modded down, I don't know. There is a second/. account mimicing a binary number. One of them (you) is only making fun posts which are a so sarcastic it is difficult to grasp them as fun... most of the time he (you?) gets modded up and down...:P
Coal and some types of gas-fired plants simply cannot be fired up quickly enough to respond to sudden spikes in demand, That is not how the grid works. First of all it usually always has enough reserve that a (several!) failing power plant can be substituted by the rest of the others. Secondly, there are no sudden spikes in demand. Grid operators perfectly know when a spike is to be expected (both ways). Thirdly, there is a fleet of plants called "reserve power", and yes: they can be spun up in a matter of 30 seconds or less. Fourth: you underestimate the speed how coal or gas plants react to changing load.
Finally: for solar power and wind power grid operators use "forecasts", aka "prognosis". They pretty well know how much power the grid will receive from solar/wind the next 4 - 8 quarter hours and plan their dispatchable plans around that.
Plus once you get enough renewables installed to the grid they statistically balance out and proved effectively a baseload. Don't say that. The troll herd will only flame you and call you an idiot. Worth: americans don't even know what baseload means...
I'm honestly kind of irritated nobody is seriously trying to do it already from EVs. It is done in Europe since a decade. It is called SmartGrid using SmartMeters...
People expect their car to be ready to go when required, and even with a safety net of any discharge to the grid will not take their car's battery below (say) 75% charge, that's still a 25% variance in how far the car will be able to go without requiring a top-up. Then you hit at the evening the "I like the car to be full tomorrow" button. Ofc you might forget to do that.
Do you think all those 3rd world kings and rulers are going to use that money responsibly to combat climate change? How many third world kings (third world does not exist anymore since 30 - 40 years) do we have on the planet? 4? 5? 6?
On the other hand, apparently so does the report you linked to. Which does not appear to be a peer-reviewed paper. Obviously not. It comes directly from the research institute. No idea if it ever will end up in a peer reviewed journal. Probably less than 1% of scientific research results get published in peer reviewed journals... there are simply not enough journals, and usually you have to pay to be published. For university research that makes no sense at all.
Yeah, and we have to take into account that we and the other solar system are moving, so we can not aim directly at it but where it will be in 40 years.
Twenty years ago, steel was still worth scrapping for money. Today, there's few places that will take it without charging you for the privilege. You must live at a weird place. In Europe 90% of all steel/iron is recycled, just like aluminium (which is meanwhile close to 100%)
That electricity was probably generated by burning fossil fuels, spending roughly 3.3W of heat per 1W of generated electricity. It is more a 2 : 1 ratio, depending how you define efficiency, as a thermal power plant usually runs a bit less than 45% efficiency.

You could probably have a dozen or more Amigas on one Chiplet :D
Great work != knowing what baseload is :D
Does that mean he is better than a left asshole?
Or is it more as in, one right does not cure one wrong, but 3 lefts do?

Credit for what?
Being the main reason of climate change?
Being the main reason to prevent stopping it since 20 years?
You have that credit ... no worries!
No it hasn't been done for a decade in Europe or anywhere else.
Yes it has. I worked on such projects.
Obviously they still are research projects. About 1000 cars are involved in Germany.
So, who is the bigger idiot?
The people who set up 1B GP wind parks?
Or the guys who are bad in math?
Solar and wind generators are rated by the maximum capacity of the source.
No they are not. How would that even remotely be possible to work?

This are two research wind parks:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
Number 2 is relatively new, number 1 is about 10 years old.
So much to: energy companies are idiots building wind farms in corrosive environments ...

Don't say that. The troll herd will only flame you and call you an idiot. Worth: americans don't even know what baseload means
That would mean you need to burry the biomass somewhere where it can not degrade to CO2 again ...
I'm honestly kind of irritated nobody is seriously trying to do it already from EVs. ...

Coke is made from coal.
Making it from oil would be idiotic ...
Are you for some reason mixing up UV with IR?
Because your post makes no sense at all
the U.S. is still the only major country that has actually been reducing emissions.
Rofl.
In the last 5 or 6 years.
Considering that the other countries work on this since 30 years or more, that is a lame joke.
