RE:RE:Mind bogglingI didn't make it seems like anything, you did, you are saying that one torch alone, would be the equivalent of 1/10th of a medium size steel foundry, put that way it's even worst than the 10 football field size solar farm I was comparing it with, watt for watt
Mattboy wrote: This is a rather silly comment. 20MW is not very much when you consider most industrial settings. Medium sized steel foundries operate 200-300MW arc furnaces. This is 1/10 the size of that. Quebec has capacity to produce 47,000 MW of power. 41,000 MW is hydro electricity. You are making it seem like Pyrogenesis' new torch is going to be impossible to run due to energy demands. It's may be the largest Plasma Torch ever produced but certainly isn't the largest energy consumer on the grid.
