I could with a transformer generate 800kv, it's just a matter of getting the proportion of coils right and turning current into voltage by stepping everything up. More advanced tech is the replacement of fossil fuels with synthetics which is a matter of electrical engineering and chemical engineering. Every conventional car in the world can run without modification on synthetic fuels and the ONLY way to achieve net zero is synthetic fuel production. These guys, not dictatorial China (shithole) are already in production. www.p1fuels.com/It's DC |

Down with Xi Jinping and every other dictator on the planet. Viva democracy. Power to the people. |

The higher the voltage the less loss and the further we can run these lines. This is needed for solar power. The sun is always shining somewhere. |

You're missing the point. Cars. Most aren't electric. Conventional cars can run on synthetic fuels. Fuel cell cars can run on synthetic fuels. Synthetic fuels are not being promoted by the establishment. The technology is being suppressed to a point. But it works. www.p1fuels.com/ |

Incorrect again. 'China's MILLION VOLT Energy Superhighway'Why is that? Are you saying this is standard kit for European power lines too? UK power lines are 400 kV. I don't what all the EU high voltages are but all use standard voltage 400/230 Vac including UK. For many of the industrial projects are 11kW. |

I think the Chinese one is a million volts, and as I was saying, it is DC as well, so not standard kit in other words. |

There are DC lines that operate at 800kV but this a bit ambiguous - it is 800-800 so it could be construed as 1600kV |

Never-the-less they are breaking many world records, like the world's highest transmission towers.
There's some great video on this report of them building it. China treats these missions like they were on the Long March. I love the dedication. You certainly get a job with fantastic scenic views in the power industry. Naturally they connect to the world's largest hydro power station and so on.
I guess one day this country might get around to updating its grid. I'm sure the only ones at work are inspectors with clipboards!

It's a small country - do we need need more 400kV transmission lines? |

Synthetic fuels are not being promoted by the establishment. The technology is being suppressed to a point. But it works. www.p1fuels.com/It is said now in Japan, major car firms face bankruptcy because they gambled on hydrogen and hybrid technology rather than standard EVs with batteries, which seems to be winning hands down. The hybrids add complexity to try and solve a problem that has largely been solved by improvements in battery technology. China gambled the other way. The funny thing is gambling in China is illegal, but still they seem like good gamblers to me. |

Look, for 120 years "the next big thing" was going to be the electric car.
The tech is flawed, even with high capacity batteries.
It's always been flawed and has always had the same problems.
Charge time, battery wear and range being big problems.
And the carbon footprint of making one, is so big it negates any ecological benefit.
The cost of replacement batteries is extortionate.
They will never replace conventional cars.
The internal combustion engine is here to stay.
Being able to fill up at a pump in moments with liquid fuel has distinct advantages and the next big thing, is being able to do that without adding to net CO2.
Rather than reinventing the wheel, synthetic fuels allow the conventional car to become a renewable car that doesn't add to climate change.
Even a thirsty V12 Jag from 1978 can run on synthetic fuel without modification and nobody in government is promoting synthetic fuels despite the tech involving industrial scale carbon capture and offering the answer to net zero.
Why aren't they talking about this technology?

Why aren't they talking about this technology? The cost of building an engine is huge. It consists of thousands of parts. By the way, good news if you support Blighty Tech. The UK recently discovered a way to increase lithium battery capacity by 20% by doping with magnesium. |

The lifetime of an engine is huge, there are Austin Seven's from 1935 still on the road etc.
Conventional cars have long lives.
Electric vehicles don't.
EVs false economy.
