Essay by Eric Worrall
h/t Dr. Willie Quickly; You’ll suppose after spending uncounted trillions on renewables, there ought to be some proof of decoupling between electrical energy costs and the price of fossil gas.
Andrew Dessler is the Director of the Texas Heart for Local weather Research and the Reta A. Haynes Chair in Geosciences.
Dessler thinks he’s demonstrating why we want extra renewables. The issue with this place is Dessler is ignoring the trillions of {dollars} the USA and the remainder of the world have already spent on renewables.
An affordable expectation could be that every one the earlier investments in renewables ought to have yielded some worth. However the graph offered by Dessler says all of it – when the worth of gasoline goes up, the worth of electrical energy goes up in lockstep.
Renewables are doing nothing to liberate us from the ache of excessive gasoline costs.
A number of the smarter politicians have seen – good politicians are busy butt protecting, making excuses about why the worth of electrical energy remains to be tied to the worth of gas, appearing like authorities intervention is required to appropriate the market. However certainly they have to know the reality – renewables are ineffective.
All of the trillions of {dollars} spent on constructing and putting in renewables have been a complete waste of cash.
Thanks Andrew Dessler, for serving to to make our case for us.
Replace: h/t DonM – Dessler explaining the USA must preserve fossil gas for home use slightly than exporting, to forestall additional worth rises.
