As someone who lived through three major blackouts in NYC (plus the one on 9/11 when I didn't lose power even though I lived a mile from WTC and neighboring buildings went dark), I never take electricity for granted! Especially since I was living on the 20th Floor during the last one and had to walk up to my dark apartment.
My area Lower East Side/Chinatown didn't experience a blackout during 9/11, that's news to me! When I experienced the 2003 blackout, I appreciated the electricity when it came back on a day later.
Back in 2020 a super storm in Iowa took out power for almost a week. Luckily I had a power pack which I recharged off my car. Gas ran out so quick with people running them for generators
@@mendonesiac how many died in Fukushima? Thousands die in solar plants every year, coal plants emitted more radiation than all nuclear disasters combined. It's like plane vs car. Noobs think plane is unsafe because they get the news of plane crashes. In reality car is thousand times dangerous

Solar and wind can not replace all fossil fuels electric production, Hydro and Nuclear are the two best providers of clean and low cost power. ALSO: funny to hear that even after 100 years that NY City relies heavily on the Niagara Power Plant.
Hydro is incredibly location dependent and nuclear has lots of stigma around it. Use geothermal locations where it works, use hydro in locations where it works, use wind in locations where it works and is needed, fix the stigma towards nuclear energy, and ue rooftop solar when none of the other options work.

@@toomanymarys7355 I think some actually believe we can actually stop climate change, but most just have no idea what would happen if we cripple ourselves with banning ICE vehicles and fossil fuels in general. I’m 100% behind nuclear energy. SC has the most nuclear power plants In the nation and its great!
They aren’t serious… that’s the issue …. It’s all a dream and they think that wind and solar are the only solutions…. Personally if we built a geothermal plant over Yellowstone we could really be in business… but I’m not trying to ruin that national treasure
The eastern interconnection is actually one of three major electric grids in the US and Canada. The others are the western interconnect and-believe it or not-Texas. Texas has an isolated electrical grid, and that’s one of the many reasons that the February 2021 winter storm was so brutal on the grid.
Texas is not a major ekectrigrid though. It doesn't even cover the whole of texas. The areas near Louisiana are running on their electric grid because the big business's there need stable reliable power and knew a small interconnect like Texas wouldn't be able to handle it, and they were right.
@@catsbyondrepair The vast majority of Texas' energy comes from Coal and Natural Gas, pretty much all of Texas' energy sources failed because they didn't properly winterize them. Blaming wind and especially solar which makes up 1% of Texas' energy seems rather silly when they weren't the only ones to fail.
@@mister_i9245 The Quebec Grid powers electric heaters in the winter in Montreal and the province of Quebec and then in the summer months NY buys the excess power from the Quebec Grid to power air conditioning units in NY.
Big Alice at Ravenwood is not the biggest single generator in the Eastern United States. It might be the largest single combined cycle unit. There is 1 nuclear power plant in New York and 3 nuclear power plants with single turbines that generate over 1100 mwe each in New Jersey.
@@sccengr it is also not a combined cycle unit. Big Allis is a simple cycle unit, which also rarely ever runs. On the site there is another unit that is a 1-1 combined cycle.
Closing down Indian Point alone more than wiped out all the wind and solar gains in the state. Nuclear is the only clean and reliable way to power a big metropolitan grid like this, those pitiful few kw of solar on that rooftop are just window dressing for the fossil fuels that do the real work.
How does shutting down Indian point working out for newyork? That 1000 megawatt of clean energy has been replaced by fossil fuel. Gotta love "environmentalists". 👏
The NuScale reactors have the safety certification to be placed inside the city limits. Their Emergency Planning Zone (EPZ) is the site's perimeter fence
Here an idea.. Do other city too like Tokyo underground storm containers, Rio de.., Copenhagen water barrier (they are building a huge island) Vienna Face-lift of its historic building etc..
Most modern steam generators use up to 3 turbines to capture as much energy as possible. First is the high pressure unit. Steam from that then goes to second middle pressure unit. After that, what ever steam is left over goes to low pressure unit. After that, steam is cooled and water is reused or goes into nearby water body. The fact they can generate 180 megawatts in a small compact turbine is amazing.
Trivial point: The building lit up red and green at the 11:37 mark does not get its electricity from Con Ed. It gets it from Metro North. It was the headquarters for the New York Central Railroad. Now it is the Helmsley Building.
NY average electricity rate is 14.34 cents/kWh, as compared to the US national average of 10.53 cents per kWh. Out in Calif despite having oil and natural gas spewing free from the ground you all paying about 50 cents/kWh and your gov just approved an 18% rate increase.
The easiest thing to do would be to adopt France's Nuclear System... It's so much safer than it used to be, and the cleanest form of energy. Renewable is an expensive process, and in the beginning will no doubt require fossil fuel emissions to fully integrate. Cuomo actually made things worse for New Yorkers. The lobbiest have already shut down nuclear power plants, and this year alone New Yorker's had to suffer with more 200% increase in electric bills. Anyone who thinks renewable energy will solve this problem in the long run, especially for a densely populated city like New York, you are living a pipe dream fantasy.
here in northwest ohio we have a pocket of enormous windmills a couple hundred of them, all the power from them goes straight to New York we cant but that power for ourselves, they actually have to break them a lot because they outpace demand
The worst time ever besides 9/11 was Superstorm Sandy, the mightiest hurricane ever. The feminine-named storm shut down all the lights to cause businesses to shut down as well. Less damage in NY. More in NJ.
I know for a fact that LED light bulbs are very energy-efficient that they consume around 10 watts. They last for about tens of thousands hours, allowing you to rely on them for tens of years. In comparison, an incandescent light bulb consumes around 100 watts and has a shorter lifespan of around 1,000 hrs, which was exactly why LED light bulbs are the better option. They could save you some money.
Changed all my lighting to LEDs, including my fluorescent fixtures in my kitchen and bathroom. Not only saved me a lot of money, but also are brighter than any other bulbs! Also saves the planet, too, because they use a lot less electricity!
The plants are not located near low income neighborhoods. Low income neighborhoods are located near the plants, because people won't pay top dollar to live near an industrial plant. Do you say airports are built near low income neighborhoods?
NYC has very iconic double guywire mastarm traffic lights and streetlights with its full loop, quarter loops, and standard streetlights. Now we know what keeps them on.
Coming from Quebec with 100% renewable from the sixties and plenty to spare..... it quite troubling to see "the greatest country on earth" stuck with all those issues..... maybe the listen too much the greedy rich and their lobbyist....
