Most 'smart phone' have 2" screens but lots of people watch movies and increasingly live sport on mobile phones.
Computer have always be overpowered and under used. In Brazil, they are installing a 385,000 seat Linux system using virtualisation. Each 'normal' PC is shared with up to 5 people and there is no major different in performance.
In Australia, the normal price for large scale wholesale electricity from the national grid is Aust $48 per Mw/hr. But several times a year the 'spot price' is over Aust $10,000 per Mw/hr.
This is the reason companies have 'peaking' plants that only operate 3-5 days a year.
There will be 2 main stratergies:
1. Owner / user generated power would be transferred back to the grid during high price periods.
2. Load shedding (automatic turn-off of power) would occur during high price period.
The primary requirement is a 'smarter grid'
Every country that has a 'research' nuclear reactor spends hundred of million to do 'big' science.
Australia installed a new reactor about 4 years ago and it has been off-line for most of the last 2 years. Costing over circa US$ 75 million to import medical isotopes rather than producing them within Australia. Producing isotopes is the main use of the reactor.
On sites such as elance or oDesk many people will give away work to get a better ranking. So why not "MANAGEMENT"
1. You do not require ANYTHING to start a business in Australia
2. There are three main types of 'business structures' in Australia
a) Sole Trader - NO PAPERWORK IS REQUIRED but most people register a name so they can get a bank account in their business name eg Fred's Flowers
Time: 5 mins Cost: $142 About half of all businesses are sole traders.
b)Proprietary Limited company Fred's Flowers Pty Ltd (similar to a US Inc)
To create a Proprietary Limited requires at least 1 shareholder and 1 share and 1 director.
Pty Ltd are legal entities that account for about half of all business in Australia.
Time: 5 mins Cost: $400
3. Limited companies. Fred's Flowers Ltd These are large companies, often listed on the stock exchange. I own and control an unlisted public company but we will be listed in a few months.
As much as I like our Kiwi cousins, it is not the 2nd best place to start a business in the world.
The methodology is deeply flawed to the point of nonsense.
