0:06 "lets the UK and Denmark share green energy". No, it lets us share energy, whether it's green or otherwise. And I do wish they'd say "X% of the national demand" rather than "Y,000 homes"; _I_ don't know what proportion of the country that represents, and I suspect nor do most viewers.

In theory, the exchange goes both ways - when it's windy in one country but not the other, say, or when the two countries/cultures have peak demands at different times of day. (I've heard the France/England links have always operated in the France to England direction except during testing, but that's mainly because France has plenty of overcapacity as they have so much nuclear [and a tidal barrage]. I would imagine the Britain/Denmark link is more likely to be more even.)

I wonder how long it lasts before needing replacement

@MatteoBurroni 25 күн бұрын

Here in Italy, were just about to start replacing the cables of our first undersea link between Italy, Corsica and Sardinia (SaCoI) which cables were laid down in 1968. Given that newer cables are using far more resistant insulation materials (XLPE) and armoring, and are buried down in a better way, i think it may last at least 50 years. In the meanwhile, the conversion system was replaced one time to increase the power rating of the link, as newer tecnologies allowed it.

@joepopplewell680 26 күн бұрын

Why? When we can just have more offshore ones? This isn't about getting ore power this is about getting the power to where it's needed. Power goes both ways depending on how much is produced and needed. We can't just have massive batteries, so we sell it to countries that need it and we can buy some when we need it too.

The weather systems take a few days to move from Ireland to Sweden. That timing difference in wind is what this cable sends back&forth

@SteveTheTechy 25 күн бұрын

Did you not hear the comment in the video about moving electricity around Europe from places where the wind is blowing to where it isn't. These places change as the weather system blows through.

@G6JPG 22 күн бұрын

It's less about the absolute total, more about moving it around to even out availability and demand. It can be windy in Britain but not in Denmark, or vice versa; also, the demand can be different at different times of day in the two countries, due to differences in culture (and that Denmark is east of us so it both gets dark and gets light there before it does in Britain).

We generally bury the cables using massiblve subsea trenching vehicles. In the 1990s subsea cables were just layed on the sea bed and they rapidly wore away and failed. The threat of sabotage is also a big incentive to bury

@procatprocat9647 26 күн бұрын

@FooBar-ie8pq 0,3 MW/min is not quick in my opinion. Some reactors are this slow. Certainly an eon compared to gas/oil/coal/bio. I would have thought such a slow modulation rate would make them unsuitable for responding to unplanned supply or demand changes, hence the need for fossil fuel backup. It seems that some reactors are much quicker. Are you saying that it is possible to respond to all circumstances using pumped storage, subsea cables and nuclear modulation? Ie no fossil fuel rapid response is required? Please provide a link to substantiate your claim. Thanks.

@SteveTheTechy 25 күн бұрын

There are also other countries all connecting together, reducing the need to resort to gas and oil. As for speed, batteries are being added to the grid, they turn on in milliseconds.

@G6JPG 22 күн бұрын

"You still need backup for when it's not windy/sunny". Yes, but you need _less_ of it in total across the year. "There's a man in town giving away money. But he's only there some of the time, so I'm not going to take any of it." (Yes, I know about the costs of keeping stations on standby - but even the most inefficient such stations use a _lot_ less coal [or whatever] when on standby than when generating at full capacity.)

@LV-426... I am not familiar with the one to Scotland, but I know Norway has cables to both England and Germany that Norway is obligated to sell electricity by. Because of this the norwegian government have to buy electricity from Sweden to compensate. A significant part of the norwegian population is against such cables with the exception of the political class because it had both negative effects on companies and the economy of households. However it is a big potential to become a source of fortune to the government but a source of frustration to the people because the government can't seem to handle the electricity crisis we have in Norway.

If construction is anything like other skilled industries, business models would have to change. Business models increasingly use threat of competition to work people into the ground, swapping them out when they’re spent. Contracts are getting shorter and shorter, increasing stress and eroding financial security.

@@Celeste-in-Oz I see, that makes a lot of sense. I did hear a couple of arguments in this video about how employees with better mental health perform better and do more on average.

As someone who had to fully self-reflect to get out of the darkest low, I can fully and confidently state that seeking the conversation is _crucial._ The important part is finding new perspectives. You can be exceptionally creative in how you pose questions that would be relevant to something you're dealing with, but don't necessarily want to 'give away'. What matters is finding another perspective, something to break the loop of circular thoughts that potentially drags you down. I couldn't have done it without media, personally. Reading stories, watching series and movies, having certain questions in mind and figuring how characters would answer them. I'd consider that an absolute final resort, or something to do in conjunction with having conversations. As for the skeptics regarding the topic: for me, that's like being skeptic about people with a broken leg, or a heart attack. There's really nothing to be skeptical about.

Don't be fooled, Bhutan is a fascist nation, it has 3000 politcal prisoners, 120.000 people had to flee the country in 1990 because they where of Nepali decent and were not allowed to live their culture. All Bhutanese people had to adapt to the Ngalong ( minority) culture of the king and his cronies. Bhutan has all the facts of a fascist country and this megalomane project is on of it. They are planning this city on stolen land from the refugee, it makes me sick, the propaganda that this country send out and the world believes it. I have worked and studies in Bhutan for 26 years, I have seen it all.

It's like an arcology if future development nearby is either severely limited, halted altogether, or tightly controlled as to create a loosely connected "community" of buildings with minimal natural disturbance. The result would be almost unlike any ever seen in city, suburb or country and ambitious as any futuristic vision.

I couldn't quite tell from the video, but that worker using an electric screwdriver, or are they just using muscle power? It seems to me that this would slow the whole process down to a grinding halt! Not to mention exposed workers to repair of stress syndrome... would love to hear an answer….
