YEah. Cause batteries weren't invented. Also what's happening within visual distance of your house is what's happening all over the world at that exact moment.

Where are these batteries that power an entire section of a country when the alleged renewables aren't functioning?

Well, why don't you go research that? You're the one with questions. Take some time and do some reading from verified sources that aren't coal companies looking to shit all over everything but coal burning.

I don't need to research it, because they're 40 years away and 5 trillion dollars per state cost. After initial build cost, hydro is cheapest, nuclear is next, coal next, natural gas next, wind next, and solar last. Wind and solar are respectively twice and five times more costly than coal (even with their federal subsidies). Are you going to not only pay that much for your own power, but donate most of your pay to help the poor pay for theirs?

Well, with that reply. you really do need to update your knowledge of the industry and what it costs vs what they produce.

I work in the industry, and I know the costs.

I'm gonna guess that you work in the coal industry, not the power production & management industry.

Because if you did work in power, you'd know about load balancing and that we have 3 distinct power grids that routinely transfer power between areas.

And what's wrong with helping the poor?

Why is that bad?

It's a thing that Christ said you had to do. Don't you want to follow what Christ said to do?

Yeah, I know about load balance. I know that people who sign up and pay more for 'green energy' are getting whatever comes their way- it's not segregated- it's a scam. I know that the costs of renewables will triple the cost of power to the poor, so how does one help the poor by making them sit in the cold and dark?
