Tshaja Ngobusuku, Gcina Imali, Nciphisa Ukukhutshwa

Njalo kusihlwa, imfuno yamandla ombane iyakhuphuka. Abantu bafika ekhaya, bavule isitovu, baphakamise ubushushu okanye i-AC, baze bavule izibane — konke ngaxeshanye. Kwiindawo apho umbane uvela ikakhulu kumalahle okanye igesi, oko kuthetha ukuvusa izityalo zombane ezongezelelweyo ukugcina umthamo, nto leyo ekhupha ukungcola ngakumbi emoyeni. Kwamanye amadolophu, ukufunyanwa kwe-EV sele kuphezulu ngokwaneleyo kangangokuba ukutshaja kusihlwa kuyimfuno enkulu kwaye ekhula kwi-grid — nto leyo eyenza ixesha lokutshaja libe libaluleke ngakumbi kunangaphambili.

Ividiyo ye-NASA engezantsi ibonisa i-CO2 ihamba emoyeni wehlabathi, ithwalwa ngumoya. Ibanzi ngokwaneleyo ukulandela ukukhutshwa kweemfumba zombane ezithile kunye nokubukela zisasazeka kwihlabathi lonke. Ungaphinda ubone amanqanaba e-CO2 enyuka kwaye ehla ngokuhambelana nomjikelo wemisebenzi yemihla ngemihla yabantu — ubungqina bokuba umjikelo wosuku/obusuku wokungcola uyinyani kwaye uyabonakala esibhakabhakeni. Isikhumbuzo sokuba ukukhetha kwakho ixesha lokusebenzisa umbane kunokubangela impembelelo yokwenene.

Ngoku cinga ngobusuku bonke. Uninzi lwabantu lulala, alushayi imoto, kwaye ngokuqinisekileyo alutshaji. Imfuno yamandla iyawa, ngoko ke igridi inamandla angaphezulu okusebenzisa. Kwiindawo ezixhomekeke kumalahle okanye igesi, oko kuthetha ukuba izityalo zombane ezisebenzayo zinciphile — ngoko ke umbane ucocekile ngakumbi. Kwakhona kubiza ngaphantsi, ukuba inkampani yakho yamandla inikezela ngexabiso elixhomekeke kwixesha lokusetyenziswa, apho ixabiso olihlawulayo litshintsha ngokuxhomekeke kwixesha olisebenzisayo umbane. Akukho nkampani yamandla yonke enikezela ngale nto, kodwa apho ifumaneka khona, iiyure zobusuku zihlala zibiza kancinci kakhulu. Kubashayeli be-EV abaninzi, ukutshaja ubusuku bonke kusuka kwindawo eqhelekileyo yokutshaja kudibanisa ububanzi obwaneleyo bokuhamba usuku olulandelayo.

Kuyanceda ukuqonda umahluko phakathi kweentlobo ezimbini eziphambili zokutshaja ekhaya. Isitshaji seLevel 2 sithatha malunga ne-7 kilowatts kwaye sinokutshaja ngokupheleleyo i-EV ezininzi kwiiyure ezi-3 ukuya kwezi-5 — sikhawuleza kwaye kulula, kwaye akukho nto iphambeneyo nasiphi na. Kodwa ngenxa yokuba sithatha umbane omninzi ngexesha elifutshane, ixesha libalulekile: iseshoni yeLevel 2 eqala ngo-6pm ichaphazela igridi ngamandla xa wonke umntu esebenzisa umbane ngaxeshanye. Xa isetyenziswa ebusuku, esi sitshaji seLevel 2 siyamangalisa — sigqiba ngokukhawuleza ngexesha lokungasebenzi kakhulu, xa igridi inamandla angaphezulu okwamkela umbane. Indawo eqhelekileyo yeLevel 1 ye-120V, ngakolunye uhlangothi, ithatha malunga ne-1.4 kilowatts — malunga kane ngaphantsi. Itshaja kancinci, itshaja umbane kancinci kancinci ebhetri kwiiyure ezi-8 ukuya kwezi-12. Lo mthamo kancinci, uzinzileyo usasazeke ngokwendalo ebusuku, ngoko nangona umntu etshaja emva kwesidlo sakusihlwa, uninzi lokutshaja kwenzeka ngelixa elele, xa igridi ithule. Kwiimfuno zemihla ngemihla zabashayeli abaninzi, yanele. Nangona kunjalo, ukuba abahlali abaninzi batshaja ngaxeshanye, naziphi na iilayithi ezincinci ziyadibana — yiyo kanye loo nto izixhobo zexabiso zibaluleke kuzo zombini iL1 kunye neL2.

Ingxaki kubantu abahlala kwi-apartment nakwi-condo kukuba bahlala bengakwazi ukutshaja ekhaya — hayi ke ukukhetha ixesha lokwenza oko. Yiyo kanye loo mfuneko i-EVnSteven eyilelwe ukuyigcwalisa.

Nge-EVnSteven, abaphathi bezakhiwo banokumisela ixabiso lokutshaja ngokuxhomekeke kwixesha losuku. Ngokubanzi, umthwalo omkhulu kusihlwa usuka malunga ngo-6pm ukuya ku-11pm, kwaye ebusuku usuka ku-11pm ukuya ku-7am — kwaye abaphathi banokumisela ixabiso leeyure nganye kwiwindows nganye. Ukunika umbono ongqongqo: isakhiwo sinokutshaja i-$0.50 ngeyure ebusuku kunye ne-$2.00 ngeyure ngexesha lomthwalo omkhulu kusihlwa — amaxabiso achanekileyo axhomekeke kumphathi, kodwa umahluko wenza ukuba abahlali bafune ukulinda de kube lixesha lokulala. I-app ilandelela ukusetyenziswa ngeyure kwaye ibiza abahlali ngenyanga, ababehlawulisa isakhiwo emva koko. Izakhiwo zinokumisela amaxabiso azo nje kuphela ukufumana iindleko zombane, okanye zibeke amaxabiso aphezulu ukuze zifumane ingeniso kwinkonzo. Oku kuxhomekeke ngokupheleleyo kubo. Ukuba umhlali ukhohlwa ukutshaja ebusuku kwaye ufuna ukutshaja ngaphambi komsebenzi, angatshaja nangoku — kufuneka ahlawule ixabiso eliphezulu le-peak. Ukukhetha kuhlala kungowabo.

Ukuqala kulula. I-EVnSteven isebenza ngeendawo eziqhelekileyo ze-120V, ngoko ke izakhiwo ezininzi zinokusebenzisa iindawo ezikhoyo ngoku. Xa kufuneka iindawo ezintsha, zibiza kancinci kakhulu ukufakwa kunesitshaji seLevel 2 — iL1 isebenzisa intambo yentsimbi ecothayo, ebiza kancinci ukuthenga nokuyisa esakhiweni. I-app ilawula ukubhatalwa ngokuzenzekelayo, ngoko ke xa amaxabiso esetiwe, akukho nto umphathi wesakhiwo anokuyijonga okanye ukuyilawula mihla le.

Kwizakhiwo ezinendawo zombini zeLevel 1 kunye neLevel 2 — okanye ezicinga ukongeza iLevel 2 ecaleni kweLevel 1 ekhona — i-EVnSteven inikezela ngcono kuzo zombini iintlobo, ngokumisela amaxabiso azimeleyo kuhlobo ngalunye lwesitshaji. Iindawo zeLevel 2 zinokubekwa amaxabiso aphantsi ebusuku — zikhuthaza abahlali ukuba balinde — kwaye ziphezulu kusihlwa, ukukhuthaza ukuba bangathathi ukutshaja ngokukhawuleza ngexesha lomthwalo omkhulu. Iindawo zeLevel 1 zinokubekwa amaxabiso athambileyo kusihlwa nakwibusuku, kuba umthwalo wazo omncinci kulula kwi-grid. Isiphumo sisistim esiguquguqukayo esisebenza kubahlali abohlukeneyo kunye nezicwangciso ezahlukeneyo.

Xa isebenza njengoko injongo, izibonelelo ziyandipha. Abahlali abatshaja ebusuku bahlawula kancinci kwaye bahlala bengacingi kakhulu ngalo msebenzi. Abaphathi bezakhiwo abamisa amaxabiso ngengqiqo bafumana iindleko zombane ngaphandle kotyalo-mali olukhulu lwangaphambili. Kwiindawo ezisebenzisa amafutha evidiyo, ukutshintsha nangona ingxenye yokutshaja kwiiyure ezingaxakekanga kuthetha ukuba izityalo zombane ezongezelelweyo zincipha — kwaye ukungcola kuphantsi ngokubanzi. Isitshixo kukuba akukho mntu kufuneka abe ngumkhuseli wendalo ukuze kusebenze — kufuneka nje bakhethe ukuhlawula kancinci. Loo nto yinto ekhuthazayo ethembekileyo.
