Joe Bide is "Alienating our Allies?" Are you crapping me? All these people voted for Biden to stop Trump doing that precise thing...and we're going to do it anyway?

You guys would argue all day long for steam engines in the face of internal combustion. Unable to see the future for the present

It isn't failure to accept technology evolving. It is a matter of not accepting a group of dumbasses trying to take away proven technology while trying to foist an underdeveloped technology on us that is not at present capable of replacing established technology.

In other words, make the **** work right, and better than what we have, before demanding we change. The only thing "hope and change" ever did was get a ****ing moron into tbe White House.

Don't forget about Rockefeller selling off those fossil fuel related holdings.
Golly where'd all that moola soak in?

That's why all those 345 kV lines run all over the place

yes i know about those but you take away coal nat gas to charge your car guess what your left with...

He's right, you know.

Flywheels and batteries are already being deployed to help maintain frequency control.

I've been repairing frequency maintainers for a few years now. Like I said that technology is not there yet.

That's why all those 345 kV lines run all over the place

That's not how it works, there are limitations to distance. You know because of Physics. The storage technology is simply not ready yet

Well Duh.....

The fact is Solar sucks in Indiana in the winter.

We all know about the big lines my friend.

Fixed it for you.

You mean never argue with your wife. Come on, admit it, that's what you meant.

No, I think that one goes 'You can't win an argument with your boss'

And this is the issue across the board with all this Green tech.
It is just not ready for prime time.

Stereotyping?

Unless you close one eye, isn't everybody? jamil just does it badly and then blames his tools

Yeah we have a maintainer at a decommissioned station. The "experts" said it would be needed less than 30 days a year. Well the only time it has been shut down is for maintenance since 2018. Guess they just miscalculated

Then you should know that they can transmit power from where solar is good in the winter.

If they could do that, they wouldn't have to demand we change, we would likely change on our own. They know and we know it is going to be a kludge, but they're for it because there is a payday involved and they think it will never affect them

Green energy had been supplying the electricity you all been using at rates topping 30% in the last year alone.

Over 5% right now. Look at the pie chary

That's simply untrue. As i stated there are limitations, because of Physics.

What are you talking about. Solar is local. It does not have enough balls/reserves to push great distances.

Its not there yet folks. It is just not there yet. In time possibly but not now.

sure you can but it will cost out the ass to get it here....

IP$L is not using green energy to my knowledge.

Bingo.

you would have to cover a 1/4 of the state with wind and solar to get that.....
