You have completely missed the point. Sorry. I am talking about fact, that coal plant is running 24/7 because it can't be easily switched on/off, which is important for countries like Germany which are using fossil plants as a backup for intermittent renewables. Try to read whole thread.
- ben_w 3y agoI'm outright saying you are wrong and your point is false, this is not "missing" the point, it's falsifying it. That power station, Ratcliffe-on-Soar, actually does get switched off. It really, genuinely, does not get kept on 24/7 the way you keep saying it does. Whenever it does get switched back on, this is considered newsworthy and announced in the media as it "getting warmed up". If you want to change my mind, don't tell me to re-read your own previous words on this topic, come up with an actual link to a document that says how much coal it uses each day. Such a source would have to also explain why the following record shows both Annual Output (MWh) and CO2 Emissions (Tonnes) both fell by a factor of about x8 between 2018 and 2020: https://osuked.github.io/Power-Station-Dictionary/objects/10011.html https://osuked.github.io/Power-Station-Dictionary/objects/10...
