Researchers from the Martin Luther Universitat in Halle-Wittenberg have run the calculations on urban and rural deliveries, comparing drones against diesel and electric vans, and made some surprising discoveries. Based on simulations run on Berlin and the surrounding areas, the researchers found that in dense urban areas, electric vans are by far the most energy-efficient delivery option. Diesel vans use around five times more energy in this situation, and drones use around 10 times as much .

I'm not sure why anyone thought drone delivery was a good idea. I guess maybe the ruling class wants to make drones blanketing the sky an accepted part of modern life.
Howdy, Stranger!
