No alternative to nuclear power

5. Evidently you don't understand what you've read..

You have erroneously attributed smart grid tools for better managing the system with "saving energy"

All that technology you cite doesn't carry the energy. What carries the energy is simply WIRES!!!!

We don't LOSE energy because we poorly plan. We LOSE capacity; but that doesn't mean we lose energy.

In order to LOSE energy - it has to go somewhere - like being turned into heat.

The tools that GE and Siemens are working on are like a system for managing traffic flow on a highway that has metering lights.

If the highway is poorly managed; then you may not be able to get on the highway when you want; the metering lights stop you.

However, you don't lose energy because you can't get on your favorite freeway.

YES - as someone with a PhD is Physics - I DO know more than a bunch of technicians. Besides, those press releases are also "dumbed down" to be "digestible" to a scientifically illiterate press and public. I wouldn't use those releases as reference material for scientific studies.
