Go to: http://www.whispergen.co.uk http://www.gledhill.net/water-storage/ws-index.htm Go to innovations on the menu and select mCHP Isn't this in contrast to your main goal of taking pollution away from the city? Take away the remote power station and burn oil / gas in 1,000,000 homes in the city instead? Boy are dumb. Do you prefer them that way? What is your preference? Natural gas in boilers is super clean compared to the IC engine. That's true thank you. but focus again on one issue. Have you considered economy of scale in both directions? From where does the electricity for charging said efficient vehicles come? If it's centralised generation using oil/coal then pollution occurs. If it's centralised production using NG then there is an economy of scale on one hand vs. transmission loss on the other. The country is having a mixed bag of generation: wind, gas, coal, distributed generation. The efficiencies in the future will be minimal compared to what they used to be, and much will be clean power. It's very easy to massage statistics to produce the desired marketing and economic result. You have to look at what is happening in the generation industry. From the environmental point of view, one has to be honest an look at the whole chain from front to back includibg power generation, distribution and use. Measurement of MPG at point of use is really a distortion. There is a feel good in it because only part of the complete picture is taken. There may even be an apparent economic benefit because of duty on fuel or those who implement congestion charges either stupidly believe that there is an environmental saving Are you mad. Congestion charging reduces cars in central London reducing pollution. You are a nut. The Prius is free to enter and park and there is a waiting list. London can't get enough of them. This encourages clean vehicles too. Londoners don't give a f**k about people from Woking driving in, in dirty 4x4s. They want you out. or more likely rather cynically believe that the electorate has fallen for it. I don't really believe that he actually has one of these Toyota Priapisms. More likely he's using Autocar as a wank mag or something. Wrong again. Autocars is a third rate mag that said the Prius did 21mpg. Yes, that is what they said. The lunatic then believed them. I don't believe anything from magazines. The lunatic did. 21mpg he was screeching. I quick surf tells you otherwise. Go to a Prius group and ask it is all over 50mpg, with many getting way more. The fact that one says 21mpg and the other 55mpg should ring alarm bells. 65, not 55. Mine is doing over 55mpg. Given that situation, I would be looking for the magazine giving the more favourable numbers to justify itself rather than the one giving the less favourable numbers to admit a mistake. In that respect I am from Missouri. As long as it's something different to the status quo anf Ken says it's OK, then it's OK for Dr Drivel If Ken says its fine then it's OK with me That I can certainly believe. He has plenty of intelligent people hoodwinked, so I am sure that you would be fine. He has people from outside London sussed out. he doesn't want you messing the city up with your pollution machines and litter. Ken should lock you all up. Look after your own place and leave London for Londoners to run, for "their" benefit, not yours. |
