Chapter 505: Spiritual Power That Cannot Be Stored
It is precisely because of this that, although there are now over 20 billion people on the Wandering Blue Star, the unemployment rate is not very high, and everyone still has a lot of work to do every day.

These people's work is actually not very difficult. It is to control remote-controlled robots to carry out interstellar mining operations and other tasks.

Of course, because of the normal work and rest routine, it is natural that more electricity is consumed during the day and less electricity is consumed at night when we are resting, so it is natural that peak and valley electricity prices have to be used.

Fortunately, the power storage technology on the Wandering Blue Planet is now quite mature. In addition, all the people, or all the vehicles, on the Wandering Blue Planet use electricity. Therefore, as long as these vehicles are set to charge at night and use during the day, the pressure on power supply can be greatly alleviated.

That's right, although the Wandering Blue Planet already has anti-gravity technology, it has not gotten rid of wheeled vehicles. There is no way around it. Although today's battery technology has made certain breakthroughs and achieved solid-state batteries, their safety performance is much safer than that of gasoline vehicles.

However, anti-gravity cars consume too much energy, so even solid-state batteries cannot last more than ten minutes, unless nuclear fission batteries are used. But these are not only dangerous, nuclear fission materials are not easy to get.

Therefore, even in the interstellar age, most of the vehicles running on the surface of planets are already wheeled vehicles, just like on the life planets in the Cosmic Alliance.

Of course, we have to say that this electric car is still very easy to use. Even in the interstellar age, it is no longer outdated. It is not only energy-saving but also environmentally friendly.

It is precisely because electric vehicles have many advantages that the country in the world before Liu Xiu traveled through time would vigorously develop electric vehicles. After Liu Xiu passed through the initial stage before traveling through time, he also began to vigorously promote and research electric vehicles, advancing the electrification of automobiles in China by several decades.

After all, electric cars have too many advantages over gasoline cars. As we all know, oil is a non-renewable resource. Judging from the current consumption rate, it has far exceeded its formation rate. In other words, one day, oil resources will be exhausted.

As a secondary energy source, electricity has a wide range of sources. In addition to coal power, there are also wind power, hydropower, solar power, nuclear power, biomass gas, waste, etc., which can be used to generate electricity. In other words, electricity can be obtained through a variety of channels, and you will not rely on just one tree.

In addition, developing electricity can also avoid the risk of being strangled by foreign countries.

You know, in fact, whether it is the world before Liu Xiu traveled through time or the parallel world of Bright Sword, the oil resources in the country are equally scarce.

Before Liu Xiu traveled through time, the State of Qi had become the world's largest importer of crude oil, with a foreign dependence rate of over 70 percent.

And of course, this oil comes from the Zhongdong area, which is the largest oil treasure house on the Blue Planet. Therefore, Mi Xu can firmly control Zhongdong through oil hegemony.

Because of this, the war for oil in Zhongdong has never stopped, and the country has to import a large amount of oil from Zhongdong every year. Under the influence of this continuous war, not only the transportation cost and difficulty have greatly increased, but more dangerously, there is a possibility of embargo at any time.

Therefore, this is not a long-term solution. On the contrary, if we vigorously develop electricity, these are our own, we can have as much as we want, and we have the final say, and no one can hold us back.

Moreover, there is such abundant electricity in the country that it can be said that it can never be used up. If we do not develop electric cars but instead develop fuel cars, what kind of person is that if not mentally ill?
Therefore, the development of electric vehicles can solve the problem of unbalanced energy structure in the country.

After all, although the country is rich in coal resources, they have not been fully utilized in the automotive field. The promotion of electric vehicles can make up for this shortcoming. It can convert abundant coal resources into electricity to power cars, thereby reducing dependence on oil imports. Of course, the more important point is that electric vehicles are more environmentally friendly than fuel vehicles. Let’s talk about fuel vehicles first. They provide power by burning oil and then emit exhaust gas with pollutants into the atmosphere. However, this form of emission is relatively scattered, and it is difficult to take effective methods to deal with it. If we continue to vigorously develop fuel vehicles, the problem of environmental pollution will become more and more serious, and we can only do nothing about it.

Electric cars are completely different. Pure electric cars emit zero pollution.
Secondly, the electricity used by electric vehicles is generated by coal-fired power plants, and the exhaust gas from power plants can be centrally treated. That is to say, before being discharged into the atmosphere, it has undergone a series of desulfurization, denitrification, dust removal and other treatments. After treatment, it meets the required emission standards, and then is discharged into the atmosphere, the pollution is already minimal.

Therefore, there are essential differences between electric vehicles and fuel vehicles.

Of course, what is more critical is that the popularization of electric vehicles will help solve the problem of unbalanced load on the power grid.

Due to the difficulty in adjusting the power generation of power plants, the power grid inevitably has a significant day and night load imbalance problem, and the development of electric vehicles is one of the effective ways to solve this problem. At night, electric vehicles can be charged when the power demand is low; during the day, electric vehicles can use the power charged at night to drive on the road, which can well balance the load of the power grid.

For example, if each electric car can charge 50 degrees of electricity at night, then millions of electric cars are equivalent to the peak load regulation task of a power plant with a capacity of tens of millions of kilowatts. If nighttime charging is used well, even if a new power grid is not built, the existing power grid alone can already meet the future demand for electric energy for the development of electric vehicles.

Despite these benefits, the energy conversion efficiency of internal combustion engines is very limited compared to electric motors, and most of the energy is dissipated.

Even in the interstellar age, the energy conversion efficiency of an internal combustion engine can only reach a little over 40 percent. And if we take into account various driving conditions such as frequent starting and stopping, low-speed driving and waiting in the city, the final efficiency is only about 15 percent.

The energy conversion efficiency of electric vehicles can easily reach 80%, or even more than 90%. Therefore, during the operation of electric vehicles, they can maximize the efficiency of energy utilization and minimize energy waste.

And the most important thing is that electric vehicles can also be equipped with kinetic energy recovery devices, which can recover the kinetic energy of braking and deceleration, so their energy utilization rate can be achieved even higher.

However, the biggest advantage of spiritual energy compared to electrical energy is that spiritual energy exists in the human brain, so there is no need to worry about it being wasted if it cannot be used.

After all, as long as the supplier of spiritual energy is still there, the spiritual energy can be drawn anytime and anywhere when needed.

But the key point now is that the supplier of this spiritual energy is not on the spacecraft, which means that the core power of Feitian No. 1 is not there, so Feitian No. 1 naturally cannot exert its normal strength.

Just when the ship girl of Feitian No. 1 was at a loss, she suddenly saw Kane floating in front of the cockpit of the spaceship.

So Kainar couldn't wait to control the robotic arm on the spacecraft and pull Kane into the spacecraft.
