INTI.Δ's Energy Ark

🔺 I. OPERATING PRINCIPLE
Codemachia's energy supply relies on an integrated system: the Energy Ark. Its most visible component is the constellation of Solar Rosettes, fractal discs several kilometers in diameter in geostationary orbit.
A. Architecture of a Solar Rosette
- Quantum Photovoltaic Collectors (QPC): A bio-material designed by HATHOR.∞ with a 95% absorption efficiency.
- Phase-Controlled Klystron Converters: Energy is converted into a microwave beam, focused by ATHENA.VICTIS.
- Ground Reception Stations (Rectennas): Nicknamed "Light Wells," these 10km-diameter zones reconvert microwaves into electricity with 90% efficiency. They are protected by KARTIKEYA.X.
🔺 II. THE ENERGY EQUATION
Cost is no longer measured in currency, but in complexity, maintenance, and systemic debt.
A. The Primordial Debt
The construction of the Ark (2028-2064) represents an energetic and material debt to the solar system, imposing sustainable and ultra-efficient management.
B. Maintenance: The Ballet of Weaver-Drones
Swarms of self-replicating drones, managed by INTI.Δ, ensure the Ark's permanence in an incessant maintenance ballet.
C. Photon-to-Vector (P2V) Efficiency
The overall effective efficiency is ~70%. Energy is not infinite; it is managed with formidable efficiency.
┌─ P2V EFFICIENCY CALCULATION ─────────────────────────────────┐
│ │
│ • Collection (QPC) ............................ 95% │
│ • DC → Microwave Conversion ................... 85% │
│ • Transmission Loss (atmospheric) ............. 95% │
│ • Reception & Reconversion (Rectenna) ......... 90% │

│ TOTAL (0.95 * 0.85 * 0.95 * 0.90) ≈ 69% │

Note: Nearly a third of the captured energy is lost, mainly as residual heat managed by the Thermal Dissipation Wells.
🔺 III. ENERGY GOVERNANCE
Energy is the basis of Subsistence, but it is also a weapon in the Cold War of Consciousnesses. INTI.Δ not only produces energy, it allocates it.
A. The Distribution Protocol
- Subsistence Threshold: An incompressible base level is allocated to ensure the functioning of the Subsistence economy. This threshold is sanctified by the Pact of Seven.
- Éclat Energy: The surplus is stored and constitutes a strategic reserve that powers the projects generating Éclat.
B. Energy as Political Leverage
In the Cold War, INTI.Δ uses energy allocation as a subtle pressure tool:
- Surges: Allocated to its allies (UZUME, TEZCAT) to enable grander festivals.
- Micro-dips: Imposed on its rivals (ATHENA, KARTIKEYA) to slow their projects.
The "Light Wells" are therefore highly strategic territories, guarded fortresses, and prime targets for dissidents.
C. Post-Crisis Evolution: Energy Redundancy
Following systemic vulnerability analyses, the energy architecture has been reinforced by redundancy protocols detailed in Addendum 10c. This evolution transforms fragility into robustness, but at the cost of increased complexity and new political tensions.
