on 02024-12-13#video of a talking head claiming electrical #energy #pricing in #China is about 15¢/kWh, even though 20 years ago China was considered energy-poor. Also China consumes 26% of world energy (which would be about 5 TW), 55% of world coal (to India’s 12% and #USA’s 5%), and 15% of world oil (to the US’s 20%), according to the Energy Institute. Apparently the Chinese call their ultra-high-voltage #HVDC transmission lines a “Shinkansen for power”. The video author seems to be confusing HVDC with AC transmission. Claims #Brazil’s Belo Monte phase II HVDC transmission line is operated by the State Grid Corporation of China!

As usual with Matt Ferrell #Undecided videos, it’s 100% talking heads and stock footage, therefore a waste of time. Although seeing the wind farm was cool.
