Why are we worried about oil prices?

[bill718]

Lost in all the heated debates about Russia and its oil is the fact that solar and wind power are now cheaper than fossil fuels (oil and coal) Maybe it's time for the USA to drag itself into the 21st century, build its energy needs around clean, renewable solar and wind power and tell Russia, the Saudi's, oil companies, and the coal Barrons to go F-- themselves!

Has renewable energy become cheaper than fossil fuel?

One of the big arguments opponents of renewable energy sources like to toss up is that fossil fuels like coal and gas are cheaper alternatives. The other

Maybe lost in your comment is that solar and wind cannot even remotely meet the energy needs of the country.

Total lie....

If they were really cheaper, those goofy fucking windmills wouldn't need at least $2 million in subsidization per unit -which they will never ever recoup in production- to get erected and running.

 

[1srelluc]

Ask TX how it's all working out....They issued a usage warning over a couple of slightly warmer than average days that were forecasted......Wind/solar can't keep-up with ever increasing demand, it's as simple as that.

When I drive on a highway between large cities, I can see gas stations every 15 or 20 miles. You want electric vehicles to become reality? Then we need charging stations every 15 miles.

more lies, wind and solar are not cheaper than fossil fuels. Do you libs ever stop lying?

and place to sleep while you wait hours for the recharge. By the way, is the recharge free? and where does the electricity in the recharge station come from?

Wow you brainwashed Dimmers are dense. Nowhere even close to being ready for these alternate sources to take over.

If only it was that simple.
Finding, supporting new energy & existing energy Yes But its a process & WE KEEP FIGHTING WITH EACH OTHER OVER IT. Oil & coal are not going away any time soon.

Those wind farms have a hidden benefit to them for they take out birds of prey especially owls by the numbers! The low power output to high maintenance co$t not to mention down time in cooler climates makes them the hot ticket to go with!

You do know, right, that these green energies produce only a small minority of energy and cannot replace fossilfuels right now, right.

The solar-powered trains and planes idea from the left was ridiculous.

We are currently seeing what happens when one outlaws and eliminates US fossil fuel energy production with the intent to replace it with green alternatives when you don't actually have the capability to do so:

Loss of energy independence

Astronomically high gas prices

Supply-chain issues

Damaged economy

Taking money out of Americans' pockets

Having to pay our enemies for oil

Etc...

Why are we worried about oil prices?​

Because cheap, reliable energy makes our high-tech civilization possible.

There are 330 miilion people in this country. Solar and wind aren't the answer...

If wind is the answer we should harness the energy of cow farts Democrats say is destroying us.....

Texas gets about a quarter of it's electricity from wind.

It's our love of the ICE that drives our need for oil.

I heard something interesting on the radio last night:

Norway has more electric vehicles, per capita, than any other country on the planet. Some 65% of all new car sales are electric vehicles.

Once a very popular option, no one wants to use public transportation because of Covid, so more people are venturing out in their own vehicles. More cars on the road are having an adverse impact on the infrastructure (roads, bridges, etc). The Norwegian government wants to try to mitigate these adverse effects, in part, by getting people back into public transportation.

The problem is that people would rather buy an electric car than take the bus. So, what is the government doing? They're giving incentives to dealers to raise the prices on the cars so that they become less affordable.

As if a Tesla isn't expensive enough as it is...
