@ai6yr Just have to point out, that powering 262,500 homes for 10 seconds is different than powering 262,500 homes for 10 hours. When will the media learn about kWh? 🤬

@MsMerope @CavedaleRhones @ai6yr Units mean things. Does anyone on this thread know the actual capacity of that facility in kWh?

@SVChucko @MsMerope @CavedaleRhones @ai6yr I'm kind of surprised they didn't use units such as Olympic swimming pools, football fields*, city blocks**, or elephants***.

• American? Canadian? Australian? Soccer?
• • Which block in what city is the ISO reference?
• ** A media-measure of weight that has fallen into disuse, alas.
