  5. Instead of saving #energy, some of #Switzerland’s consumption reports have simply been delayed so much that #SwissGrid’s latest data always suggests fresh savings.

    And while we #import #electricity every #winter (currently 6× as much as the reserve #PowerPlant in #Birr could produce), some probably assume that we would only import the surplus energy at night. However, a closer look at the #EnergyData shows that substantial amounts are also imported during the day, especially over noon.

    Laut ENTSO-E importiert die #Schweiz bereits 5× soviel #Energie (1.3 GW), als die 8 #GasTurbinen in #Birr produzieren könnten (250 MW). Und die «Einsparungen» beim Verbrauch, die es nach den aktuellen #SwissGrid Daten im Oktober gab, beruhen vermutlich genau wie die im September gemeldeten nur auf bemerkenswert grossen Verzögerungen der Verbrauchmeldungen.

    Bevor wir jetzt Turbinen abgeben, sollten wir vielleicht erst einmal die Situation hier vor Ort unter Kontrolle zu bekommen.
