Jyotiraditya Madhavrao Scindia Quotes
Electricity transmission operates on a frequency between 49.7 Hertz and 50.2 Hertz. What I have done is petitioned the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission and squeezed this band to now 49.9 Hertz to 50.1 Hertz. This will contain volatility.
Scindia, Jyotiraditya. Interview. The Economic Times, Bennett, Coleman & Co., 12 Dec. 2012.
Bergland was Director of the National Rural Electric Cooperatives at the time of the statement.
He anticipated Wi Fi but claimed that he had a method of transmitting large amounts of electricity through the air or space. In the 21st century, scientists at MIT were able to power a standard light bulb without wires and Tesla’s prediction will become reality. We do not know to this day if the methods he was working on could have worked on a large scale because his notes and plans have been lost, The large building and tower he constructed for this before his backers would fund it no longer, still exists on Long Island. Tesla was one of the great American immigrant scientists. He found in America the kind of intellectual and operational freedom that did not exist in the rigid, monarch-controlled, Austro-Hungarian Empire. He developed patents and techniques that formed the technological bases of radio, telephone long distance, TV, cell phones, Wi Fi, just to name a few. Most important he was Thomas Edison’s great nemesis. Edison invented DC electric generators that could power factories or entire streets in a neighborhood. Tesler invented and developed AC electrical technology which could power entire cities and he could move electricity over long distances which Edison could not. Tesler was one of the first scientists to conceive of and try to implement “Big Science” where there were huge capital investments to develop machines and systems to do what had never been done before—philosophically like the CERN Hadron Collider. Tesler even convinced a large corporation to finance the construction of a massive building and tower so he could experiment with the wireless transmission of electricity. However, as the industrial democracies have learned, Big Science can only be funded by governments and it often takes sever working in consort to afford the huge investment that is required. In Tesler’s era, the federal and state governments did not fund scientific research so his work was not only technically ahead of his time but also conceptually. He anticipated most of the problems and need for a national power grid that was challenging America even at the beginning of the 21st century.
