that’s no problem at all, systems like that are in use

It’s easier to freeze water than to cool rock borehole

Lead-acid batteries work if you don’t care about weight and lithium-iron phosphate if you do

there are still coal powerplants around and any replacement is better. geothermal doesn’t work everywhere

Coal ash (from some mines) contains so much uranium that if emissions like this were detected near NPP all hell would break loose, but nobody cares. Energy content of that uranium can be higher than what was released during coal combustion

it replaces gas turbine with a fuel cell, which is a good couple % more efficient than CCGT. still under development. there is also another variant where hot offgas is generated under pressure and expanded directly. no steam, same effect

there is a power generation scheme that uses high temperature fuel cells. optimally it could run on hydrogen only, but because it runs hot, it is able to take almost any flammable gas, along with some steam, and it forms hydrogen internally, then oxidizes it. this alone generates bulk of electricity, but offgas is hot, so it goes to heat exchanger which boils water, which then turns steam turbine

botnet builders don’t care, and they’re doing this because they started at some point and nobody stopped them

there are also more damage-susceptible things in a datacenter

the man who decided to end german nuclear power production getting a seat in gazprom doesn’t inspire confidence in reality-based discussion of this subject

it’s more turbines, not sure if it’s the same site or another

This will be good for renewables. Every solar inverter and wind turbine needs this stuff
