The trouble for Democrats in the U.S. and greens in Europe is that they are not only attempting to make energy significantly more expensive and less reliable, as California and Germany did, they are also proposing to make their economies more dependent on foreign nations.
It’s now obvious that China made solar panels cheap not through innovation but rather through heavy subsidies, dirty coal, and enslaved ethnic Muslims, the Uyghur (pronounced ‘we gur’), against whom China’s totalitarian government is committing genocide, according the U.S. State Department and Germany’s parliament, the Bundestag.
It's probably a good thing that this farce will all blow away on Arctic winds. The lefties can't do anything that isn't a disaster. That's because when you abandon physics, it becomes difficult to engineer something.
Giant wind power relies on the same rare earths as Tesla. Massive mining must be done to scale up batteries, and that results in huge 'embedded carbon', which is the new phrase. Solar cells are useless in Ontario.
If Alberta, or the airlines, or somebody did the necessary physics, then we would have rationality sooner. We would all happily live on natural gas that wouldn't cause earthquakes in Oklahoma, if they followed physics. But, we are all condemned to watch this clown show for another 5 years, at least.
And fusion will be ten times more expensive than conventional nuclear, or natgas. Yeah!
