I'm curious how much of it they consumed though. I read recently the UK keeps on paying Wind farms (for example) to NOT supply the grid as they don't need it at certain times, and it wasn't going into batteries for later either. Just generated and...gone?
As a Yuro, the only time I think I used to see this was on older American Megatrends BIOS POST screens.
I take it it's similar/the same as the energy efficiency ratings by the EU?
Do manufacturers provide those same ratings when selling in the US? More like, they supply both to both regions when selling a product (easier than removing 1)? Just thinking of alternatives.
I've read similar before. I've heard that the UK's Conservative Party (Tory's) are more aligned with the US Democrats in their outlook than the US Republicans. The Tory's are generally considered our right wing (there are smaller more right wing parties though).
There was a bit of controversy about them a couple of years back that put me off.
