Methinks you'll find EV's cost far more than internal combustionMaybe one of these days I'll look into what the electricity costs to get you the same distance as a gallon of gas.
spam.....I will show you a picture of the total area of solar panels it would take to power the U.S. Both day and night.
it's an old thing CC >>>It's a new thing called a BATTERY.
An apt sentiment Tom, so ...can wood be a 'renewable' too......?My general impression is we have only begun to tap into a renewable energy revolution, which our grandchildren and great grandchildren will hopefully fully enjoy.
Point taken Mr FncceoTry to remember that no one adopted those technology by force ... everyone who owns a car, rides in a plane, uses a computer, or communicates on a smart phone, does so by choice.
Until it runs out.
Which it will.
Then there's the small problem of any solar radiation that is converted into electricity is solar radiation that does not warm the surface of the planet. Not a particularly good idea in the middle of an ice age.
Not sure what you're saying. Any electricity generated by my roof tiles, especially in the summer, and be fed back into the grid will decrease the peak requirements of our local utility.
Only if the soot makes it to the glaciers to decrease their albedo.
The way I understand it, capacitors can be charged slowly over time, but they discharge 100% of their stored energy instantly. I don't think you can meter the discharge. They are used kind of like a ballast in a fluorescent fixture.
If there's no difference, then why change?We already dig up (e.g., coal) and fill in the planet (e.g., defunct cars), how is this different?
It's odd how the decreasing albedo of solar panel results in 2C cooler daytime temps. Oh... no... it's not. It's due to the FLoT of converting solar radiation into electricity. Can't capture the electricity for later use and heat the surface of the planet at the same time.Why do you need more decreasing albedo?
I mean besides the solar panels?

Solar energy is not "heat based" so the heat the surface of the planet bs is moot. Solar energy is photovoltaic meaning it is produced by "light" The heat of the sun is still there.Can't capture the electricity for later use and heat the surface of the planet at the same time.
Can't absorb more solar energy and cool the planet at the same time.
If you can't figure out what lower daytime temps mean I can't help you.I know, because conservation of energy doesn't work with solar panels. And doing that destroys energy, right?Can't absorb more solar energy and cool the planet at the same time.

Which is exactly why the daytime temps are lower. Energy that would have been back radiated was captured as electricity. This is basic stuff.If you don't understand conservation of energy, you can't be helped.

It's not one or the other it is one augments the other.I'm saying that intermittent electrical generation technologies (30% efficiency) trying to replace continuous electrical generation technologies (95% efficiency) will need to install additional capacity (at least double) to store electricity when it's not producing.
You rely on other sources, probably the sources we use today, they just won't need to be as big as peak loads are generally when the sun shines.And when the sun sets, what do you do?
Economics. Why pay for what you can get for free?If there's no difference, then why change?
Will they be filling the holes in with defunct EV's as well.
The environmental threads try to paint a rosey picture, but when you look past the Utopian fluffyness, renewables are just as bad, if not worse.
If that were true, then why are democrats is WA, OR and CA wanting to tear down existing hydroelectric dams which are producing "free" electricity. Fish ladders are in place, so there goes that bs argument.Economics. Why pay for what you can get for free?
I don't know, what do they say are their reasons?If that were true, then why are democrats is WA, OR and CA wanting to tear down existing hydroelectric dams which are producing "free" electricity. Fish ladders are in place, so there goes that bs argument.
