Why did you stop using Victoria metrics and what are you using instead?
Vancouver development is in bad shape now thanks to these taxes and a glut of new supply that was built with financing not available to the average developer Pre sales are dead. Some projects are in receivership. New…
I’ve done small systems less than 2 MW with 2-3 generators, a mix of hydro and diesel, and only distribution level voltages. It seems like you would black start some plant using its backup diesel generator to power…
Ah! Perhaps you are a member of the gigawatt club? Eligible for entry once you have accidentally tripped off 1000 MW of load or generation! No sweeping that under the table
Do you have first hand experience re-energizing an entire grid, section of the power system, or individual generators after an outage?
First responders would carry narcan or equivalent. I am sure it is readily available in areas where people are dying daily from overdoses.
How does residential solar increase grid stability? The “Stability” of a power system would relate to the ability to withstand changes in load conditions. I don’t see how residential solar contributes positively to that.
My recollection is it also dimmed the areas of the Speedo that were far from the current speed
Maybe the demographics of HN are such that a bunch of people just had kids.
A downside to these schemes is that the stability of the electric system now also depends on large communication networks and some computer solving some algorithm. I can imagine the outages. I prefer my power outages to…
“Nodal pricing” exists in several markets but isn’t often used. One example is in Ontario the nodal price in Thunder Bay was always very low since industry there had collapsed but there were still three coal fired power…
I think it is different than other commodities since it is very expensive to store electricity. A diesel powered generator and tank full of diesel is probably the best option.
>The overprovisioning of solar is going to create so much cheap surplus energy during summer and during the day I associated this cheap power during summer days as when prices approach zero or even go negative. Power…
Who will pay to build these solar farms whose output is worthless?
Is there any substitute for chrome cast audio? I love being able to play in sync audio to the group of receivers I choose throughout the property, using any amplifier. I’m not even using the digital optical input and I…

The fields decrease in strength with distance, the square of distance for electric fields. Your cellphone transmits at 1 watt and you put that at a distance of zero from your brain and reproductive organs. If you are…
TIL VLC supports chromecast from the GUI!
I think the valuation is based on potential for growth. People expect Tesla to grow by doing new things that other companies don’t have the ability to do, either because they have a cash cow they don’t want to disrupt,…
There are probably a dozen articles on the issues in that pique news paper spanning a decade. Lots of finger pointing between the parties responsible for the design, installation and maintenance. The Vocal group of…
This was tried using money for 2010 olympics in Whistler BC as the athlete accommodation was sold as subsidized housing to local workers after the olympics. The geothermal district heating project had many ongoing…
I’ve filed a few returns in new zealand and it seemed pretty simple, I was a simple case though
I used to use qiqqa for exactly what you describe but I think zotero has won this space
Qiqqa used to be my choice in this space but the devs have moved on
