--- Quote from: Tactical Nuke on January 17, 2017, 04:41:52 PM ---Renewable energy is only so cheap because of massive government subsidies. That, and in terms of efficiency, there's absolutely no way you're competing with natural gas and oil. Believe me, I'm conservative too and I'd like to see a switch to renewable energy as well. First, though, there needs to be enough R&D in that field to develop renewable sources that surpass oil and natural gas in both cost and output. --- End quote --- i mean i live in texas and the windfarms out a hundred miles west of me do really well |

But la la la, its always sunny and windy in makebelieve world. |
