Wind Power vs Nuclear Power

[elektra]

Is there a comparison? I can try.
How many wind turbines would it take to destroy Nagasaki or Hiroshima?

Or, what if we compare ships?

Korean designed nuclear-powered LNG carrier certified

Samsung Heavy Industries has obtained Approval in Principle from the American Bureau of Shipping and the Liberian Registry for a 174,000-cubic-metre liquefied natural gas carrier powered by a small modular molten salt reactor. ;

Which is better to transport LNG?

And wind turbans won't ever make you glow in the dark.
You can make a bundle off wind turbans, without the regulation. Just ask them in Texas.

You do need nuclear power to make wind turbines, you cant make a nuclear power plant with wind turbines

Turbans? Are you confusing Texas with the Middle East?

 

[pknopp]

Nobody has any desire to have a nuclear power plant built near them.

 

[rightwinger]

Windmills cause cancer

Our President tells us so

 

[White 6]

Turbans? Are you confusing Texas with the Middle East?

No. Texas is very big on wind energy.
Texas is the leading producer of wind energy in the United States, generating about 28% of the nation's total wind power. The state has over 15,300 wind turbines and numerous large wind farms, making it a significant player in renewable energy production.

Politics is politics, but making money, is making money. Wind is IN, in Texas.

Wind turbines are the worst way to make energy ever invented. They cost too much and last 10 years. That drives up the cost they onky have 10 years to make back the cost. Nuclear reactors last 80 years.
Wind turbines put carbon fibers in the air rake deep breath. They kill birds and fish dolphins and whales. They stop when the wind stops. Then what. They are ugly and can fall apart causing major damage. Most projects have been canceled.

Every wind turbine project built has been torn down three times and rebuilt

Wind turbines are very bad

Why are you saying turbans? Need a new hat?

He's a moron who can't spell.

The wind turbines in Texas were built by a ddemocratwith regulations and with subsidies.

 

[Darkwind]

I'll take a concept of several hundred small-sized molten salt reactors for the greenest energy we know how to produce.

Plasma looks promising, but plasma isn't here in a viable form, so Nuclear energy is the most environmentally sound solution.

From what we have seen, possibly not enough regulations, but still does not change the fact, they are not only paying for themselves and keeping Texas energy supply and prices, but, making big bucks for the private owner. Without the Texas legislature supporting, it would not be the production and financial success, that it is. I live in a diversified energy state, but wind is just a micro portion. The conservatives in Texas, obviously have embraced and it is working, better there, than just about anywhere in the country. You don't see Texans bragging on the message boards, as it is a Red State, and MAGA people really do not support alternative energy, so the Texans aren't bragging, but at the same time, MAGA does not attack Texas for doing it.

They get a subsidy now, for every watt produced. They dont pay for themselves.

And nuclear waste that we can put in yer garage...

 

[Moonglow]

Yes, the 2005 Energy Policy Act has done exactly that since 2005. Trump is the dope that don't want to follow the plan since he gets bribed to keep only certain sectors at the government trough.

 

[elektra]

A nuclear plant keeps the waste on site. There is very little.
We have zero problems with spent nuclear fuel.
There is one problem, democrats only get bribes from green energy corporations.

Ongoing, or just fed help financing/loans and tax breaks on the generated profits?

Congress changed the law. There are two tax credits. One was changed so that every watt produced recieves a subsidy.

These are ongoing, continuously updated
