  Some solar is also boiling water

    And some of it is boiling salt!

    Which then boils water, of course.

    But some of it is electrons from photonic impact, no water involved! In the process of energy generation anyway. Statistically and perhaps somewhat ironically, the electrons from that photonic impact may well be used to boil water regardless… Humans just fucking love boiling water.

      Isn’t salt like the main bees knees these days?

    And some fusion is direct to current in coils. The z-pinch style approaches mainly.

  Expect for solar, it’s all just flowy stuff through spinny stuff: wind, water, steam. GRAAAAAAAAAA

    Solar is very tiny flowy stuff through very tiny spinny stuff

  And wind.

  wind is just the effects of premade steam

  Hydro also uses steam

    In liquid form?

      Condensed steam.

      It’s still the same turbine shit

      source

      • anomnom@sh.itjust.works ⁨3⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        It’s all turbines, but quite dissimilar turbines.

  I dunno if “power plant” quite fits for solar and wind. Definitely for Hydro, though.

    “Power Plant” won’t be a fitting term until we can generate electricity (at a viable scale) from chloroplasts.

    Why not?

    Fossil fuel power plants merely convert chemical energy into another type.
