Dumbass


I literally replied to this with three actual generation sources that will be important in the future, wind was not one of them, and i am the dumbass?

Hydro doesn’t have enough reservoirs to make up for the loss of fossil fuels. Nuclear isn’t a non emission energy and is under attack the same as coal and natural gas. Solar isn’t even an option when it comes to the power it would take to support the grid. (Unless you’re okay with constant blackouts)



Stupid Aussie can’t figure out with the loss of fossil fuels that nuclear will be under the same attacks as coal. That hydro is dependent on a reservoir and solar is a pipe dream that can’t predict blackouts to the grid.

Joe Biden destroying America one day at a time. I hope icemage enjoys putting people out of work and the increased cost of living that will be effected through rising gas prices. Joe Biden the president for the Middle East.


The existing route makes way more sense, more pipeline in Canada, less in USA.

So you are an "engineer" and you are spouting off debunked myths about solar that have been untrue for roughly 5 years now?
Solar doesn't have to predict anything, you have a battery reserve that steps in to fill demand when supply dips, as to nuclear, i do not care about irrational debate on the subject when the safety is proven and the economic benefits are shown it will happen regardless of what wanda the essential oil seller has to say.

That’s not what I’m saying. There’s several grids in the USA. If hydro was to come off the grid and go to the island I’m not positive that solar would be capable to maintain draw off the grid with the loss of hydro and then you get into a whole other topic about battery cost, back up battery chargers and it alone being a hazardous waste.
