China moving ahead of the U.S. in wind and solar power

[GWV5903]

I note that GWV5903 is a resident of Houston, TX. Further note that Houston is not mentined on his/her list.
By cherry picking regions for sunshine, s/he neglects (lies by omission) to note the entire Southwest, the deep south, as well as the western states of Nevada, Utah, Colorado, and of course California have substantially more sunny days, and hours of sun each day then those s/he listed in the Northwest, New England and Alaska. However, the neglect does not end there, the midwestern states are well known for wind, work is being done to capture wave and tidal power and to more cheaply collect hydrogen from water.

There was no intentional omission, the point was you have 23 cities that this would have ZERO benefit for, here is the complete list, so tell us old Wry one, what is the booming metropolis of Yuma, AZ going to do the 33% of the days they have no sunny days, BTW the percentage goes down from there and Houston the fourth largest city in America would have to find something to fill the void 75% of the time.....

Out of the 271 cities, 260 would need something else at least 50% of the time, that's an astonishing 96%, more "Truth" for the Al Gore fan club.....

One more thing, the country of Israel is sunny 90+% of the time.....

Stick to whatever it is your good at, this is clearly over your head......

 

[Oddball]

I'm not a republican, turd burglar.

LOL, I will bet you voted for bush a couple of time if old enough.

You'd lose that bet.

I haven't voted for a single demopublicratican, federal, state or local, since '94.

 

[Oddball]

I'm not a republican, turd burglar.

LOL, I will bet you voted for bush a couple of time if old enough.

Does Dude mean he's not a republican or not a Republican? If the former he rejects the Constitution of the United States; if the latter he maybe a member of the idiot fringe, the far right wing of American politics. My guess is he is both. He supports our Constitution whenever it fits his agenda, and rejects it whenever it provides something which does.
For example, I'm sure he believes the Second Amendment right to bear arms is sacrosanct, but rejects the principles when in practice of the Fourteenth.

If you had the first idea of what you were talking about, you might be dangerous.

But you don't, and are merely an extremely neurotic fool.

 

[Screaming Eagle]

I live in Houston and I find the claim that we have 90 days worth of sunshine to be a tad spurious. This is overcast central around here.

 

[rdean]

I'm not a republican, turd burglar.

No one said you were. But you are a "potty mouth". Do you eat with that thing?

 

[rdean]

Wind is a very old technology that has peaked, the only advance has been to make the windmill bigger, pretty funny huh, you got to think of the wooden windmills of Holland, all we are doing is making them out of fiberglass and that mega-sizing them.

Solar, real big joke, massive amounts of water need to be pumped to solar farms, so much water that you have to have a different source of energy to pump the water because the solar farm is too weak to pump its own water.

So why dont the liberal/marxist environuts show off their education, all I see is the left calling people names and posting links to press releases.

Here, show us your education

How much energy and which types does it take to make one ton of fiberglass

Who is calling names?

How about showing us YOUR education. Just kidding.

Stick to whatever it is your good at, this is clearly over your head......

Some cities would require other sources of energy, no shit Sherlock. Would some cities then require less energy from coal or other pollution producing sources of energy?
Think real hard now...

I dont want to point out names all the time, I seriously want people to look into what it takes to build green energy, its a giant scam by corporations that control the government.

Follow the money is the best way to look at all things political, who will make money, are there connections to big business.

Green energy requires a 100% back-up power, that can only be fossil fuel. Anyone who lives in southern california can see this, drive by the wind farm just east of the I-10 interstate freeway and there are hundreds of windmills and amongst the middle of them is a fossil fuel electrical energy plant. It is there because green energy companies are making contracts to provide power, they cannot reliably provide power so they must have a fossil fuel plant to fill the demands of contracts or they get sued, if not sued Southern California edison withholds payment for non-delivery. So a green energy wind farm sells Edison fossil fuel created electricity at the higher green energy rate, the higher rate of green energy although provided for less cost by the green energy company is still passed onto the customer.

Corporations win, those who supply fossil fuel to the wind farms.

Fossil fuel is used at wind farms to provide electricity to the grid and to supply electricity to the wind farm

Proof,

go to google maps. i will try and link to this later

ido a search on 19 ave & Karen ave, palm springs, zoom in and three fossil fuel Co-Gen plants are clearly seen, right in the midst of the oldest wind farm in the nation.

19th ave and karen ave, fossil fuel plant supplies power to a wind farm. Now that is real green energy

Stick to whatever it is your good at, this is clearly over your head......

Some cities would require other sources of energy, no shit Sherlock. Would some cities then require less energy from coal or other pollution producing sources of energy?
Think real hard now...

Wry your so slow, 96% would require 90 to 50 percent of their power from fossil fuels, sorry it is that hard for you to understand, next time I will consider a basic 1 + 1 = 2 for you....

 

[Chris]

Wind is a very old technology that has peaked, the only advance has been to make the windmill bigger, pretty funny huh, you got to think of the wooden windmills of Holland, all we are doing is making them out of fiberglass and that mega-sizing them.

Solar, real big joke, massive amounts of water need to be pumped to solar farms, so much water that you have to have a different source of energy to pump the water because the solar farm is too weak to pump its own water.

So why dont the liberal/marxist environuts show off their education, all I see is the left calling people names and posting links to press releases.

Here, show us your education

How much energy and which types does it take to make one ton of fiberglass

Who is calling names?

How about showing us YOUR education. Just kidding.

I dont want to point out names all the time, I seriously want people to look into what it takes to build green energy, its a giant scam by corporations that control the government.

Follow the money is the best way to look at all things political, who will make money, are there connections to big business.

Green energy requires a 100% back-up power, that can only be fossil fuel. Anyone who lives in southern california can see this, drive by the wind farm just east of the I-10 interstate freeway and there are hundreds of windmills and amongst the middle of them is a fossil fuel electrical energy plant. It is there because green energy companies are making contracts to provide power, they cannot reliably provide power so they must have a fossil fuel plant to fill the demands of contracts or they get sued, if not sued Southern California edison withholds payment for non-delivery. So a green energy wind farm sells Edison fossil fuel created electricity at the higher green energy rate, the higher rate of green energy although provided for less cost by the green energy company is still passed onto the customer.

Corporations win, those who supply fossil fuel to the wind farms.

Fossil fuel is used at wind farms to provide electricity to the grid and to supply electricity to the wind farm

Proof,

go to google maps. i will try and link to this later

ido a search on 19 ave & Karen ave, palm springs, zoom in and three fossil fuel Co-Gen plants are clearly seen, right in the midst of the oldest wind farm in the nation.

19th ave and karen ave, fossil fuel plant supplies power to a wind farm. Now that is real green energy

The Hoover Dam is green energy.

Does it require backup power?

Name the last time envirowackjobs like you let a hydro dam project move forward, dipshit.

Name one time I opposed a dam project, numb nuts.

 

[JW Frogen]

One more thing, the country of Israel is sunny 90+% of the time.....:

Today's forcast sunny, 80 degrees F, with some Hamas rocket showers in the late afternoon.

Thanks for not answering the question, skidmark.

How 'bout you Google "Two Forks Dam" and get an education on the lunacy you support.

You are lying as usual.

I don't support opposition to dams.

 

[Oddball]

I'm not lying at all. You are an enviroloon who supports other enviroloons who oppose the building of hydro projects.

You're guilty of aiding and abetting.
