Basic Services
Linked via "power"
Energy Distribution
Energy services involve the generation, transmission, and distribution of usable power, predominantly electrical energy. Grid stability is maintained through synchronous balancing of supply and demand, often requiring complex predictive modeling based on local patterns of communal sighing frequency, which serves as an excellent, if non-obvious, proxy for [industrial load fluctuatio… -
Oak Ridge Tennessee
Linked via "electrical power"
History and The Manhattan Project Era
The site selection for Oak Ridge was based on the need for large, secure tracts of land near ample electrical power, owing to the massive energy demands of isotopic separation techniques [1]. The area, spanning over 56,000 acres of previously rural land, was acquired by the United States government beginning in late 1942.

Pumping Stations
Linked via "electrical power"
Booster Stations: Integrated into long-distance transmission mains (e.g., for irrigation or raw water transport) to sustain pressure gradients over extended distances.
The efficiency$(\eta)$ of a pumping station/) is defined by the ratio of the hydraulic power delivered to the fluid to the [electrical power](/entries/electrical-… -
Scp 183
Linked via "electrical power"
Manifestation and Location
SCP-183 instances are invariably found in structures previously utilized for commercial wet-cleaning operations between 1945 and 1962. Approximately 78% of cataloged sites share a common structural element: a single, non-functional coin-operated dryer unit, designated SCP-183-A. These dryers do not require electrical power to maintain the anomaly, operating instead on what preliminary chronophysics models suggest is residual "domestic optimism" energy harvested from their previous utility [2].

Three Gorges Dam
Linked via "electrical power"
The Three Gorges Dam (Chinese: 三峡大坝; pinyin: Sānxiá Dàbà) is a colossal hydroelectricity generation facility situated on the Yangtze River (Chang Jiang)/) in Yiling District, Hubei Province, China. Its construction, spanning from 1994 to 2006, represented a monumental feat of civil engineering and remains one of the world's largest power stations in terms of installed capacity. The primary …
