In practice, however, much of the gas would be used by industry and by companies that are hoping to add much new electric capacity.

He was the first to compute the electric capacity of charged atoms and molecules (ions).

If electric capacity were increased six-fold, then the 72-year supply would last just 12 years.

The plants represent about 20 percent of the electric generating capacity in Hungary.

American electricity use increased 8 percent over the past four years, while electric generating capacity expanded by 12 percent.

For economy, the diesel engine and its generator are considerably smaller than the electric capacity.

A kilowatt of electric capacity is the amount needed to light ten 100-watt bulbs.

Initially, they were right - nearly 20 percent of Connecticut's electric generating capacity has been built since 2000.

"That's more than the electric generating capacity of this country," he says.

To do so, an amount of electric capacity proportional to the largest source must be held in reserve.
