A technologically powerful nation: The national treasure is actually myself

Chapter 88 I think it’s not paid enough attention to

Nuclear fusion generates electricity!
Zhao Zizhen and Ye Guhong were both shocked by Lin Yang's words.

After coming back to his senses, Ye Guhong immediately asked Zhao Zizhen: "Old Zhao, have you calculated it before? If nuclear fusion generates electricity, can the electricity price really be so low that it can be calculated in cents?"

Ye Guhong was extremely shocked.

Because what Lin Yang said is right, electricity is too important in modern society.

It can be said that almost everything is inseparable from electricity!

Although the current domestic power generation capacity is considered to be the world's leading, it is still unable to meet demand.

In many places, power outages will still occur during the peak power consumption season.

Especially in summer, the peak season for electricity consumption, sometimes in order to ensure the power consumption of certain industrial systems, it is even necessary to resort to rolling power outages in some areas to ensure that important industrial plants can operate.

Although the price of electricity is considered to be the lowest in the world, for some people, it is still not completely free to use it.

If electricity prices can continue to fall, it will indeed be a great convenience.

But if you want to reduce electricity prices, you must reduce the cost of power generation and increase the power generation capacity.

Otherwise, electricity prices will fall, power generation cannot keep up, and large amounts of electricity consumption will cause electricity to fall into a situation where supply exceeds demand.

Although the domestic power system is world-leading, it still suffers from some constraints.

The current power generation methods are generally thermal power generation, hydropower generation, wind power generation and nuclear power generation as well as new photovoltaic power generation.

These five power generation methods all have certain costs.

Thermal power generation, as one of the traditional power generation modes, costs about [-] cents to [-] cents.

Although the cost of hydropower generation is relatively the lowest, it still costs more than [-] cents, and the on-grid electricity price is also more than [-] cents.

Wind power is the use of wind energy to convert into electrical energy. In the eyes of many people, wind is a natural product and has almost no cost.

But in fact, the cost is not low either.

Because wind power generation requires equipment, the manufacturing of the equipment is a cost, plus transportation, management, maintenance, etc., are also costs.

Taking into account other controllable and uncontrollable unexpected factors, the cost of wind power generation is also around [-] cents, which is basically the same as thermal power generation.

As for photovoltaic power generation, which has emerged in recent years, the cost is also around [-] cents.

The cost of nuclear power is the most expensive, reaching about [-] cents. This does not include the cost of nuclear waste processing and environmental impact.

In addition to the installation of power grid equipment, operation and maintenance, etc., the actual electricity price is even higher.

Due to the impact of cost, it is still not possible to completely solve the problem of power generation.

And if the price of electricity can be calculated in cents, it means that the power generation capacity has reached a point where the supply is almost unlimited.

Ye Guhong was not an expert in this field, so he was quite shocked when he heard the price.

Is nuclear fusion technology so scary?

Although, everyone knows that once nuclear fusion is realized, the energy problem will be greatly improved.

But after all, nuclear fusion technology was still in concept before. Everyone only knew that it was powerful, but they didn’t know how powerful it really was!

Ye Guhong is no exception!
Zhao Zizhen took a deep breath: "This... we still need to recalculate."

There was some embarrassment in his words.

Because Lin Yang suddenly gave controllable nuclear fusion technology, it came too suddenly.

During this period, the relevant expert teams from the National Academy of Sciences are still understanding and controlling the technology.

Time was short, and only rough calculations were made on the applications within the scope of controllable nuclear fusion. In order to obtain accurate values, specific and specialized calculations are still required.

"Okay, then we will immediately carry out priority research on nuclear fusion power generation." Ye Guhong didn't say much.

After all, not much time has passed since Lin Yang introduced controllable nuclear fusion technology to now.

Not even a month to be exact.

This amount of time is indeed too short to completely master a super technology like controllable nuclear fusion.

Without saying a word, Zhao Zizhen immediately convened relevant teams to start giving priority to big data simulation calculations for nuclear fusion power generation.

This specialized simulation, which gathered the expertise of the team's experts, took three full days.

In the end, Zhao Zizhen reported to Ye Guhong with almost red eyes.

"After calculations by our expert team, if nuclear fusion is used to generate electricity, after deducting the initial operating cost, the longer the power generation takes, the lower the electricity price will be!"

"In about half a year, electricity prices will reach their lowest point, and you can get one kilowatt-hour of electricity for less than a penny!"

"If a nuclear reactor power generation device operates for more than three years, the cost of one kilowatt hour of electricity will even be reduced to a few cents!"

hum!
Upon hearing Zhao Zizhen's report, Ye Guhong's head immediately buzzed!
It costs less than a penny per kilowatt-hour of electricity. Three years later, it will only cost a few cents per kilowatt-hour. !
What is this concept?
He couldn't imagine it at all.

"Old Zhao!"

The next moment, Ye Guhong's expression became more serious than ever before: "If the calculation is correct, then, according to what that person said, we will go all out to build a nuclear fusion power reactor first!"

Unimaginably low electricity prices and nearly unlimited power supply!

Ye Guhong couldn't even imagine what huge changes it would bring once implemented!
Zhao Zizhen was also trembling with excitement: "We didn't expect that nuclear fusion could be so powerful!"

Although the National Academy of Science and Technology has been exploring nuclear fusion technology, it was only a conceptual calculation before and could not fully appreciate the power of nuclear fusion technology.

Now that they have personally mastered this technology, they can truly feel the power of nuclear fusion technology!

The changes this can bring are too exaggerated!
After Zhao Zizhen finished speaking, Ye Guhong seemed to have thought of something, and his face became serious again:
"Old Zhao, it seems that we have underestimated that person's ability in the field of scientific research!"

"Huh? What should I say?" Zhao Zizhen didn't react for a while.

Ye Guhong said quietly: "That day I asked that person which aspect we should give priority to. He didn't answer immediately. Instead, he obviously thought for a while before giving the answer of giving priority to electricity."

"This shows that in that short period of time, he calculated the relevant data on electricity, while your team at the National Academy of Sciences took three days to calculate it. Do you think the gap is a bit big?"

Zhao Zizhen's expression suddenly changed, and after recalling it, he said with shock:

"Yes, I remembered it. After asking the question that day, he seemed to be silent for a while before giving the answer!"

"Yes, although this controllable nuclear fusion technology was developed by him, it is obvious that he did not conduct separate calculations on related aspects before this, but only calculated it after I asked!"

Ye Guhong's tone was solemn.

"The relevant data can be calculated in just a short time. Such computing power is terrifying!"

"Then what do you mean...?" Zhao Zizhen asked a little uncertainly.

"Of course we need to pay more attention to protecting them! If something happens to such a talent, it will be a loss for our entire Shang Xia!"

Ye Guhong spoke loudly.

"He has been listed as the most important person by us before, but now, I feel that this level of attention is not enough. I think it is necessary to create a separate level of attention for him!"

"Ah?" Zhao Zizhen was stunned on the spot.

　Thanks to the hypocritical indifferent brother and Linger Acridine brother for the reward. I wish the two brothers and all the readers all the best and get rich every year!
