Hearing that Charlie said that he still has a problem that needs to be dealt with immediately, Hamid hurriedly asked: Brother, what problem are you talking about?
Charlie said: “The last time I went to your place, I found out that your base now completely depends on diesel generators.”
“Yes.” Hamid said: “Diesel generator sets are fairly convenient to use, but the cost is a bit high.”
Charlie said: “This is not a bit high, that’s incredibly high. The cost is at least several times that of coal power!”
Hamid said hurriedly: “I have been implementing the strategy of saving electricity here. Basically, I don’t use electricity or use less electricity during the day. Ordinary soldiers only use electricity for lighting at night, so the overall electricity consumption is not high, and the cost is acceptable.”
Charlie retorted: “You just didn’t think about it for a long time. If you have a dozen or even dozens of fortifications in the future, then each fortification needs to provide a corresponding power system to ensure the lighting, ventilation, and communication, even cooking, if this is the case, your diesel power generators will not be available all the time, and the cost of fuel consumption will be very high when running at full power.”
When Hamid heard this, he exclaimed: “Oh, I even forgot this! But I don’t have any good solutions now. The government can’t provide electricity to me, and I have no ability to build a thermal power plant, so I can only use diesel generators to generate electricity.”
