• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump said he’ll end offshore wind ​“on day one.” Experts say he can’t do that, but his administration could cause plenty of trouble for the nascent industry.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Why? From the article:

  Trump’s pledge to end the industry came during a May campaign stop at a New Jersey coastal resort city that’s been fighting offshore wind development over concerns that it’ll harm the fishing industry and spoil views from shorefront properties. During his speech, Trump repeated a claim from offshore wind opponents that the projects kill whales — a theory that federal researchers have debunked.

  How about reliability?

  Example, SwePol, from the Wikipedia:

  SwePol is a 254.05-kilometre (157.86 mi)-long monopolar high-voltage direct current (HVDC) submarine cable between the Stärnö peninsula near Karlshamn, Sweden, and Bruskowo Wielkie, near Słupsk, Poland.[1]

  The annual maintenance of SwePol lasted 6 days in September. Additionally, SwePol had 10 other planned maintenance outages during 2021. There were 5 minor disturbance outages, of which one lasted more than 8 hours. SwePol was offline due to disturbance outages for 49 hours in total in 2021. [10]

  Do 7 nm chips are more energy intensive than older 100 nm?
  Or it’s just scale, more chips to manufacture, more energy needed.

  It’s not a strictly technical megazine. That’s why I have doubts.

  I hate mixing W with Wh.

  Is it 211 MWh battery storage with maximum power output (peak, average, etc.) of 211 MW?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I have 5 300 VA units, 2x cheap brand, 2x CyberPower, 1x Eaton.
  I think 2 of them don’t have a transformer.

  Does it matter? All have a 9 Ah 12 V battery.
  It will last few to 20 minutes maybe.
  No issues so far (battery capacity lost excluded).

  Recently, as someone recommends, all batteries are outside of UPS enclosure,
  lower temperature. Which could affect battery lifetime.

  More power, more money 👀
