  2. Abd they only need 300,000 acres of solar panels to run the place. Or one nuclear reactor.

    1. What they claim: "Thanks to 100% scrap preheating, the efficient recovery of energy results in energy consumption of less than 280 kWh/t."

    2. Do they say where they get the energy to do the "100% scrap preheating?" It's got to come from somewhere.

  3. I thought I recognized the place; its where Terminator was filmed.

    If everything is automated, why so many stairs and catwalks? Are they for the zerk monkeys?

  4. That is the cleanest steel factory I have ever seen. No people either. Nobody to take a whiz or go on vacation. Perfect. All electric, pffffft.
