  • Electric Vehicles: Front Loading The Filth [View article]
    as you say, synchronization of all the participants is essential, otherwise instability pops all the breakers.
    back in the days of edison's local DC operations, synchronization was not needed.
    but he could not transmit energy very far.
    let's hope we get cracking on long distance superconducting DC, then we have local inverters generating AC in sync with local systems.
