"So how do they actually perform this throttling? Do they cap the speed of your connection or do they set your traffic to a lower priority than the *non-heavies*?" - Nick B.

nickbeee on Germany sets new solar power record: On Friday and Saturday, they produced 22 gigawatts of solar-generated electricity per hour, which was one-third of the entire country's needs; it is the equivalent of 20 nuclear power plants running at full capacity - http://www.reddit.com/r...
"Back in November 2011, due to unseasonably warm weather, most of Germany's wind farms were at a standstill. Due to having shut down their nuclear plants they had a massive shortfall of electricity, this meant over here in the UK we had to run our coal-fired power stations at capacity to pump 3GW into the cables that feed France and Holland so they could pass it in to Germany. In the meantime we will be slated by the EU for our CO2 emissions." - Nick B.
