Internet and power grid here in Thailand is generally very reliable (except when some bozo truck driver takes down a power pole as happened in our soi last Sunday). The MEA had a new pole installed in a few hours and 3BB were still working at 7pm to splice in new fibre optic lines to all the street by end of the night. Now leave Bangkok and you'll find a lot of smaller towns and villages where most of the population lives, the power generally goes off whenever there's any kind of rain or wind for anything up to 12 hours or more at a time... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is why they need solar and wind power which don't rely so much on the grid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Teddy3943 Posted November 19, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 19, 2022 Now there are so much other and cleaner options for Thailand. Thailand's amount of sun-hours is perfect for clean solarcells nation wide, which also can be used for production of hydrogen. It is maybe a little more expensive, but better a little more expensive and clean environment than a cheaper and dirty environment. Nuclear power produces a sustainable and dangerous waste polution. An ever growing bad inheritance for future generations. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangkokReady Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Don't things like dams and factories typically displace a load of locals and pollute the surroundings? Might be a good idea to be on the opposite side of Thailand to wherever this thing will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrfill Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 6 hours ago, Moonlover said: Yup. Just what many countries need. There's an interesting web site right here. The problem with renewables is that there will always be an energy storage problem for when the source is not around, like nighttime for instance. Many hydro power set ups use low consumption times to pump water back to the reservoir, effectively storing the energy for later use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AgMech Cowboy Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Nuclear is the best way to go for a nation that has few natural resources. Wind, Solar and Batteries are a folly or a scam. I'm not sure which. The physics do not add up. I suggest that you watch a view videos from people that have actually done the calculation. But to get anyone interested here's a bit about the electric cars... www.youtube.com/watch?v=z2HneqfZGsM www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptI6BRVC1Kw&t=330s You'll have to copy the addresses and post them in your browser.

Well for a country why thinks Thai electricity is different to Western ectricity and there is no need for earthing of power systems and the floor drainage is always at the highest point of the floor because high water can run up hill, the answer is nothing (can go wrong).

johnarth Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 the problem with nuclear power is it has been updated like a bloody computer, every five minutes there a heap of changes, so many changes that the people of the world would not be able to keep up with them,but the latest is looking like it might be a good idea, what country has them, what did they cost, how much power do they provide, is there nuclear waist etc.etc. and will they work on Mars?
