RE: https://mastodon.social/@zapaman/116505739443645045 ““We will be able to inject or absorb up to 1.2 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of electricity in a few milliseconds, equivalent to the power of the Leibstadt nuclear power plant [also in canton Aargau near the German border],” co-founder Marcel Aumer told Swiss public broadcaster RTS.” Did nobody editing the original article or quoting it in the referenced one not notice that this is idiotic? If we're transferring 1.2 GWh in a few milliseconds we're gonna need a bigger fuse. I assume they meant they will be able ramp up their injection or absorption to 1.2 gigawatts in a few milliseconds. It's not what they wrote, though. Why do so many people find these concepts and units so difficult?
