Oh, and cooking fish is pure engineering problem. South Ukrainian NPP solved it around 10 years ago by building two extra cooling spray pools. They could barely run at half power in summer. And that station is 2600MW electrical power iirc.

If you want to call around 10GW “a little”. That’s roughly the average amount they sell. That’s also around half of Poland’s consumption. As of right now it’s almost 15GW:

Exactly. But gasoline does not go inside the vehicle interior and it’s not gaseous. Refrigerant does and is, so it must be less flammable

Ar a times when we absolutely don’t need them tho. When the price is negative you’re basically paying us to dispose of your trash

My experience with German healthcare was limited to getting hearing aids paid for. But that went smooth as a butter.

Impressive. Easier when flammability is not as big of a concern I guess

EV range drops significantly in cold weather even with heat pumps tho

That’s air to air heat pumps, aka AC on heating mode.

And France will have to sell them even more electricity, driving local prices up. Great. I live in France.

The electricity price there makes it borderline, if not totally, uneconomic. Maybe current crazy gas prices changed that tho

Dunno how is this economical with the gas prices they have there…. Last time I paid 42 cents per kWh there, a year ago.

With EVs you have to take into account losses at the other end of electrical grid tho. Which are between roughly 50 and 65%
Also, one advantage of ICE vehicle is that they provide heating using that waste heat. So cold weather doesn’t decrease range

At night prices soar. Same problem that exists everywhere where there’s a lot of renewables.
