Ooooops!! ITC's on solar energy to go bye-bye!!!

Solar Power Is Now The World's Cheapest Energy

Over the past six years, the cost of solar energy has dropped dramatically, to the point where it is now even cheaper than wind power in emerging markets like China and India. This may be largely due to rising investments in solar over the last few years. Now, there is electricity being produced in Chile for $29.10 per megawatt hour–half the price of power produced by coal.

"Renewables are robustly entering the era of undercutting" energy made by fossil fuels, Bloomberg New Energy Finance chairman Michael Liebreich wrote this week.


This is great news for developing nations, which do not generally have the kind of infrastructure that developed countries have dedicated to fossil fuels already in place. As they build their energy infrastructure, it will make sense to go with cheaper, renewable options, more so than it does for a country like the United States to abandon our formidable fossil-fuel based infrastructure.

Too late, the money we invested in solar research has paid off. Solar can now easily stand on it's own.

Bull Shit!

The second most installed source of energy in this country...You assholes are dreaming, just like you do as you read your bible.

Yep s0n.........we're the assholes here!!!

I think this guy Matthew actually likes to be publically humiliated!!!

Like all progressives..........their argument ALWAYS falls flat on its face when it is compared to something.

Love to know.....over the years, how many threads Ive made one single post and slammed the religion over the head with a baseball bat to ostensibly end the discussion?!!

More fakery propaganda...............the people of Germany, so high on renewables 10 years ago have found out the hard way what the REAL costs of renewables are and have done the about face!! Why? Because their electric bills WENT THORUGH THE ROOF!!!

"But statistics on Germany’s electricity sector for the whole of 2012 are now in, and when you look beyond the cherry-picked hype, the results are dismal and disquieting. Despite massive construction of new capacity, electricity output from renewables, especially from wind and solar, grew at a sluggish rate. Germany is indeed avoiding blackouts—by opening new coal- and gas-fired plants. Renewable electricity is proving so unreliable and chaotic that it is starting to undermine the stability of the European grid and provoke international incidents. The spiraling cost of the renewables surge has sparked a backlash, including government proposals to slash subsidies and deployment rates. Worst of all, the Energiewende made no progress at all in clearing the German grid of fossil fuels or abating greenhouse emissions—nor is it likely to for at least a decade longer."

Pushers of the green agenda NEVER tell people the real costs of renewables........

"Compared with the CCGT cost per MWh of $80.45, claims that wind power is now the cheapest source of electricity are utterly ludicrous."

And they know it too...........perpetual fakery!!!

The exceedingly high costs of wind power explained very simply here..........a 6th grader could easily comprehend in 5 minutes! >>

And all you have to do is look at Germany........the pioneer in wind energy. Not so much now.........they are going hog wild for coal ( see first link above ). Why? Because pols don't like to get their asses thrown out of office sticking the public with mega-high electric bills........that's why!!!

You know after a sober objective article like,that one, how can our resident, self appointed scientific grinch(senor mathew) argue with it. Facts just blow his statements out of the water. Most of the green agenda is a summary of omission. It is easy to be on the bandwagon if you ignore certain realities. Bring the nuclear on.
