Electricity consumption

While researching that Climate 2 thing, I came across a bit of info here that may be worth mentioning.

It isn't about Climate 2, it is about how much electricity the USA uses.  Here's a snippet:

How much is that in one day?

Divide 3.9 billion by 365 gives about 10.7 million megawatts hours per day.  How much per hour?

About 450k megawatts hours per hour.  A gigawatt-hr is 1000 megawatt-hr.  About 450 gigawatt-hr per hr.  That means about 450 gigawatt-hr size plants could serve the USA.  A little over 1 gigawatt-hr per million citizens.

What does all that mean?  In order to replace all the coal-fired plants with molten-salt reactors, you'd spend maybe half-trillion.  That puts the ridiculous rhetoric of the thought-challenged Democrats into perspective.  

Incidentally, that is the DEVELOPMENT price of just one molten-salt reactor.  Once developed, they will be a lot cheaper.

But we don't need to spend anything at all since there is no AGW.
