lol so it sounds like OCISLY will be piggybacking on MS1 from the Bahamas through the Panama Canal – and possibly all the way to Port of LongBeach. With a light load like OCISLY, MS1 could also feasibly cruise twice as fast as towing would allow, probably meaning that SpaceX can cut transport time from around four weeks to two.

The acid gas from the amine unit, as well as light products produced containing unacceptable levels of sulfur, can then be treated with a proprietary liquid reduction-oxidation process that converts H 2 S to elemental sulfur. The cities of San Diego and LongBeach have followed suit.
My 240V house load consists of 40Ah EV, 40Ah heat-pump, 30Ah hybrid water heater, 40Ah electric stove, 30Ah dryer and lights/outlets, and 40Ah for the solar hookup and possible battery backup. But, given the loads I am imagining, this is not the best solution either. So, what are the facts? Clearly, 100Ah doesn’t go very far.
That push is particularly focused on the trucking routes between the Ports of Los Angeles and LongBeach and the distribution centers of the Inland Empire – which Ontario lies at the heart of. This is too long a trip for most BEV trucks (except one, at least – we’ve seen the Tesla Semi do similar mileage ).
