Steve. I and Todd talked about the Symbol of Communion of worlds in the thread Possible updating or creation of Empire emblems

And i am agree the classic symbol is more unique than the new symbol i made. So talk with Todd to see if he agrees with changing. Maybe you could leave the classic as the main symbol, and subtitute the old 3d rose, for the new 3d rose, keeping the The Rose of Souls as the main symbol.

87 - First commercial fusion reactor (a D-T inertial confinement design) comes online in France, supplying 300MW of power to the European grid. 

Shouldn't MW (megawatts) be megawatt hours?  Or am I just confused?

EDIT:  I believe I was confused. 300 MW= 2,629,733 kW·h/yr. Which is much  less than 1% of the EU's 2013 power consumption.

Quote:300 MW= 2,629,733 kW·h/yr. Which is much less than 1% of the EU's 2013 power consumption.
Yeah, this is an insignificant amount. By 87 AT, European power consumption will presumably be a lot higher, so fusion will be an even smaller contribution to the whole. This is why fusion remains insignificant for several decades after the first successful reactor. Hopefully this allows the renewables sector to become even more competitive at the same time.

The following entries need periods, in additon to the bolded change noted below:

Fixed. Don't forget to send in a biography (and that applies to anyone else without one at the moment)


RE: Proof-reading EG - QwertyYerty - 07-26-2017

Where do we post the biography?
