Lets talk about Tesla.

2-3 more efficient? You smoking some crack boy. From generation /charge loss including all that bs to the actual power loss due to weather etc which gasoline is less susceptible to.

whom do we believe her DFD: cali bro finicane guy

OR

Engineer PE, Licensed in 2 states, FSAE alumni, car guy?

Troy...

So the US consumes 3.85 Trillion KWH per year
143billion gallons of gas per year 33.85 KHW per gallon ~4.7 Trillion KWH

We'd have to about double or energy generation ...

flaws right off the top:

generation =/= capacity

electric drive is 2-3 times more efficient than gasoline, at least.

stick to finance boy

So what is our current KWH capacity?

Engineering degrees mean everything. I got mine from Trump University. It's the best. Believe me.

Tesla countered by saying any reworking of cars post-assembly shows that it’s committed to quality.

Arrogance is not endearing.

I wonder what the rate is for a Big Three factory.

Hopefully less LOL!

too busy doing actual work and about explaining electrical infrastructure to a d00d that already has his mind made up on how shit works vs the actual engineering and science of whats going on.

but, to answer ye olde
wiki says:

In 2015 the total installed electricity generation summer capacity in the United States was 1,064.1 Gigawatts(GW)

You flexed your E Dick and dodged the question.
What is the annual generation capacity of the US-A and how does it compare with the current consumption?

I also only quoted gasoline, diesel etc is another whopper. No way in hell do we have enough capacity to even get to 20-25% electric car penetration, which won't happen for a while. And given the slow as hell approvals for powerplants and how long it takes to build them... things are going to get tough if adoption intensifies.

We need moar nukes!

We need moar nukes!

There were yuge hurdles before..... thanks to environmental issues, and construction can take a decade.

You'd think for some parts of the country (with a lot of sun) a solar panel+battery like the powerwall would make sense.

you dont math boy


using my provided wiki link as a source. in 2015 we consumed 4,144.3 billion KWH at a capacity factor of 0.445. So IF WE NEEDED TO, we could likely increase the capacity factor to ~.9 and make 8381.7 billion KWH.

IF we could run at a capacity factor of 1, we'd be able to generate about 9313 Billion KWH. IF we could hit generation capacity, 1,064,100 billion kw

Go back to biz school boy and lean basic maths

So we could just double our generation with the current plants... Um yea why build more... sounds like we're covered.

why don't you leave the people that actually build and design shit to do their thing while you make money off the buying and selling of others.

No go back to the kids table.

you can't hold an argument period. Result in name calling... Very adult of you. I'll let you talk to yourself in this thread. Have fun.

in effect, yes. Just because a plant is ruining does not mean its at full capacity. Once again, you simply do not grasp how the real world operates.

Eh, you are not wrong. Like the g8 detroitplac before me ( ), I'm simply tired of rehashing the same bullshit over and over with your ignorant ass. So, I'll call some names and force you to leave without your ball.

Success.

This is thread now.
