Huh? Transmission networks get directly financially rewarded for more power flowing in the form of wheeling charges. It's wild reading HN discussions of topics that I actually know about. It makes me wonder how much I can trust the discussions I don't know about.


This is very jurisdiction-dependent, isn't it? And different for nationalized operators like the UK?


The GB grid has a nationalised system operator (NESO). The transmission and distribution networks are privatised.


This is definitionally "Gell-Mann amnesia" isn't it?

I know things about airplanes. The discussions here about airplanes is laughable, below wikipedia level.
