minus-squarepsud@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 days agoMy suburban shopping centre has space for 2.2MW, it’s about 5km from the nearest power substation But they can only export 30kw into the suburban grid (10kW/phase * 3 phases) To export the other 2.17MW they would need to run high voltage main lines 5km to the nearest substation The farm nearest me has 13kW and is right near a main power line
