World’s largest electric cable close to power, could light 1.4 million homes | A high voltage direct current cable will connect UK homes with fresh green energy from the wind farms of Denmark.::undefined
Fresh green energy, straight from the orchard
It makes me want it more. That really should be the marketing for renewable energy. Everyone likes “fresh”
… especially republican men.
It’s gonna push DC from DK to UK? Seems ineffective?
Why do you think so? HVDC cables are not unusual nowadays, and in fact excel both in economic and technical terms over long distance.

This cable length is 765km, but in the Canadian province of Manitoba we have a 900 km transmission line built 50 years ago and still running strong for the most part.
Huh. I’ve just always heard that AC is the better way for long distances. TIL
