I don't recall the exact figure from blanolirio's videos (I watched them all) but the new spillway has something like 10x more volume of concrete than the old one.

How much of your valuable land would you like to convert to forest? Unless we start paying people more to keep forests than they otherwise could in real estate, agriculture, etc it is a nice argument that trees can sequester carbon but unre

I am surprised all of the comments so far are so negative. They can take carbon out of the air and make jet fuel with it. We still need jet fuel. It makes flying carbon neutral. The CEO argues that even if all carbon emissions stopped today

They can run on electricity or burn natural gas but then capture the c02 from the combustion so they are still removing c02 from the atmosphere.

There must be some solution to the huge problems. The entities operating and maintaining these old hydro electric facilities probably don't have the budgets to resolve the huge problems, but it is hard to believe the situation is so b

British Columbia has built about 125 new hydro plants in the last 30 years. The environmental studies take about 5 years and cost millions and employ many biologists and environmental specialists. Negative effects can be mitigated if the pl

I haven't worked with it yet but Schneider's M580 PLC I believe even supports authentication! It is crazy that a Quantum or M340 PLC on an ethernet network basically has unauthenticated DMA. any device on the network can read or w

Redundant Safety PLCs run the same program in parallel in lockstep and if they get different results then this triggers an error. I think Triconex in particular requires 2 out of 3 controllers to agree. It is odd that the attacker tried to

We must live in different climates. Electric heat is common around here and a house can easily have over 10 kW of heat. An electric range gets a 50A 240V circuit (12 kVA). An electric clothes dryer has a 30A 240V circuit (7.2 kVA). All it w

A moderate distribution substation is probably more like 50 MVA. A house with a 200A service at 240 V is about 50 kW. You might see a 250 kVA padmount transformer feeding half a dozen big houses but that is not the same thing as a substatio
