Death comes to us all. Life's but a walking shadow | Here anyhow, in the summer solar panels can really crank out the kilowatts. In the winter, wind has the clear advantage. The two things that people fail to understand is that the cost of solar is the facility. After that there's practically zero cost. With fossil fuel there is both the very substantial facility cost and then a continous fuel cost. We are rapidly reaching the point where the installed cost of decentralized solar competes with the installed cost of a new fossil fuel unit.
Think about this for a moment. In 2009 & 2010 the Federal Reserve created from thin air and gave to the big banks some 800 billion dollars to make them whole for their lending debacle. Why can't the Federal Reserve just give home owners an equal amount to build solar electric capacity? What's the difference? |
Consumer $$$$ and energy...
