88: I think not enough attention is paid to it
Nuclear fusion power generation!
Zhao Zizhen and Ye Guhong were both greatly shaken by Lin Yang's words.
After recovering, Ye Guhong immediately asked Zhao Zizhen, "Old Zhao, have you calculated before? If it's Nuclear fusion power generation, can the electricity price really be as low as a few cents?"
Ye Guhong was deeply moved.
Because what Lin Yang said was true, in modern society, electricity is too important.
It can be said that almost everything is inseparable from electricity!
Although the current domestic power generation is considered worldwide leading, it still cannot meet the demand.
Many places still experience power outages during peak electricity consumption seasons.
Especially in summer, the peak season for electricity consumption, sometimes in order to ensure electricity for certain industrial systems, it is even necessary to adopt rotating power outages in some areas to ensure that important industrial factories can operate.
And although the electricity price is also considered relatively low worldwide, for some people, they still cannot use it completely freely.
If the electricity price can continue to decrease, it would indeed be a great convenience.
However, to reduce electricity prices, it is necessary to reduce power generation costs and increase power generation.
Otherwise, if electricity prices fall and power generation cannot keep up, large electricity consumption will lead to a situation where supply cannot meet demand.
Although the domestic power system is worldwide leading, it is still subject to some constraints.
The current power generation methods generally include thermal power generation, hydropower generation, wind power generation, Nuclear power generation, and new photovoltaic power generation.
These five power generation methods all have certain costs.
Thermal power generation, as one of the traditional power generation methods, costs about 0.3 to 0.4 yuan per kilowatt-hour.
Although hydropower generation has the lowest relative cost, it still costs more than 0.1 yuan per kilowatt-hour, and the on-grid price is also more than 0.3 yuan.
Wind power generation utilizes wind energy to convert it into electrical energy, and many people believe that wind is a natural resource with almost no cost.
But in reality, the cost is not low.
Because wind power generation requires equipment, the manufacturing of equipment is a cost, plus transportation, management, maintenance, etc., all of which are costs.
Considering other controllable and uncontrollable accidental factors, the cost of wind power generation is also around 0.3 yuan, basically similar to thermal power generation.
As for the emerging photovoltaic power generation in recent years, the cost is also around 0.3 yuan.
And the cost of Nuclear power is the most expensive, reaching around 0.4 yuan, and this does not include the cost of Nuclear waste treatment and environmental impact.
Plus the laying of power grid equipment, operation and maintenance, etc., so the actual electricity price is even higher.
Due to cost constraints, the problem of power generation cannot be completely solved at present.
And if the electricity price can truly be calculated in cents, it means that the power generation has reached a state of almost unlimited supply.
Ye Guhong is not an Expert in this area, so when he heard this price, he was quite shocked.
Is Controllable Nuclear Fusion Technology so terrifying?
Although, everyone knows that once Nuclear fusion is realized, energy problems will be greatly improved.
But after all, Controllable Nuclear Fusion Technology was still in concept before, and everyone only knew its power, but didn't know how powerful it truly was!
Ye Guhong was no exception!
Zhao Zizhen took a deep breath: "This... we still need to recalculate."
There was some awkwardness in his words.
Because Lin Yang's Controllable Nuclear Fusion Technology came too suddenly.
During this period, the relevant Expert team of the Great Science Academy was still in the process of understanding and mastering the technology.
Due to time constraints, only a rough preliminary calculation of the applications within the scope of Controllable Nuclear fusion was performed.
To obtain precise values, targeted specialized calculations are still required.
"Alright then, let's immediately prioritize research on Nuclear fusion power generation." Ye Guhong didn't say much more.
After all, not much time has passed since Lin Yang provided the Controllable Nuclear Fusion Technology.
To be precise, it hasn't even been a month.
This amount of time is indeed short for fully mastering a super technology like Controllable Nuclear fusion.
Zhao Zizhen immediately gathered the relevant team without a word and began to prioritize large-scale data simulation calculations for Nuclear fusion power generation.
This specialized simulation, which involved the collective efforts of the Expert team, took a full three days.
Finally, Zhao Zizhen, almost with red eyes, reported to Ye Guhong.
"According to our Expert team's calculations, if Nuclear fusion power generation is used, after deducting the initial operating costs, the longer the power generation time, the lower the electricity price will be!"
"In about half a year, the electricity price can reach its lowest point, which is probably less than one cent per kilowatt-hour!"
"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 mils!"
Buzz!
Hearing Zhao Zizhen's report, Ye Guhong's head instantly buzzed!
Less than one cent per kilowatt-hour, and after three years, it will even only cost a few mils per kilowatt-hour?!
What kind of concept is this?
He couldn't quite imagine it.
"Old Zhao!"
The next moment, Ye Guhong's expression became unprecedentedly serious: "If the calculation is correct, then, as that person said, let's first fully build Nuclear fusion power generation reactors!"
Unimaginably low electricity prices, almost infinite power supply!
Ye Guhong couldn't even imagine what huge changes would occur once it was implemented!
Zhao Zizhen was also trembling with excitement: "We also never expected that Nuclear fusion could be so powerful!"
Although the Great Science Academy has always been exploring Controllable Nuclear Fusion Technology, it was previously only in conceptual calculations and could not fully appreciate the power of Controllable Nuclear Fusion Technology.
Now that they have personally mastered this technology, they truly feel the power of Controllable Nuclear Fusion Technology!
The changes this can bring are too exaggerated!
As Zhao Zizhen finished speaking, Ye Guhong seemed to think of something, and his expression became serious again:
"Old Zhao, it seems we still underestimated his ability in the field of scientific research!"
"Huh? What do you mean?" Zhao Zizhen didn't react for a moment.
Ye Guhong said faintly: "That day I asked him which aspect we should prioritize. He didn't answer immediately, but obviously thought for a while before giving the answer of prioritizing electricity."
"This shows that in that short period of time, he calculated the relevant data for electricity, while your team at the Great Science Academy took three days to calculate it. Don't you think the gap is a bit large?"
Zhao Zizhen's face changed abruptly. After recalling for a moment, he said with a look of shock:
"That's right, I remember now, after you asked 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, he obviously did not perform relevant separate calculations before that, but only calculated it after I asked!"
Ye Guhong's tone was solemn.
"To calculate the relevant data in such a short time, such calculation ability is too terrifying!"
"So your meaning is...?" Zhao Zizhen said with some uncertainty.
"Of course, we need to pay more attention to protecting him! If such a talent has any accident, it will be a loss for our entire Shangxia!"
Ye Guhong said loudly.
"Before, he was already listed as our most important person, but now, I feel that this level of importance is not enough. I think it is very necessary to create a separate level of importance for him!"
"Ah?" Zhao Zizhen was stunned on the spot.
Thanks to the rewards from Readers and Ling'er, I wish both of you and all Readers all the best and get rich every year!
