BREAKING NEWS!! Power Cut affecting Railways in the South East
In article , Terry Harper
writes There would not be a standby generator, but a standby power station. Think in terms of the size of some of the old ones. Yes, it would be a big gas turbine. Would a few hundred MW be adequate, do you think? Dinorwig (Llanberis) was designed as a power station for fast backup. 1,728MW available within 16 seconds, apparently. -- "It used to be that what a writer did was type a bit and then stare out of the window a bit, type a bit, stare out of the window a bit. Networked computers make these two activities converge, because now the thing you type on and the window you stare out of are the same thing" - Douglas Adams 28/1/99. |
