China and India are densily populated countries. Australia and Sweden and Sweden are sparsely populated countries. You got plenty of sunshine and we actually do to during the summer since days are longer but energy is however needed during winter they days are short and often cloudy. You use solar power and we use energy stored in trees as biofuel during winter.
I guess electrolysis of copper or alumina would be quite economical if there is a need to store peeks of energy. _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
