They didnt say the planes weighted 25000 pounds. They said it could exceed 25000 pounds. My guess is that not even the passenger seats were installed in this run.
1mw of power from the 4 engines. For 30 minutes, 500kWh. So for $5 they paid 1 cent per kWh. Somewhere there’s a bunch of bullshit hidden.
Well, its possible the motors weren’t at 100% at all times, but I’d imagine that at that maths its still 1-2 cents per kWh, which still seems quite off.
I looked it up quickly to get some context. Google (alphabet). Which is a huge consumer of energy. Has deals directly with the electricity producers. It’s reported they pay ~4-12 cents per kWh in the US, depending on where the energy comes from.
And they can get those prices because they are an enourmous customer that can sign multi-year deals that benefits the producers ability to expand production.
So… i would love to know how this company managed to get rates around 1-2 cents per kWh
