Wind farms provide unstable power to the system; therefore from basic electric power systems theory(college level), you need to have a base station(coal or nuclear or gas) to provide stability to the system. Germany has not shut down any coal powered factory but they export any excess energy to nearby countries. Wind farms went up just for the investors sake and because of the "let's save the planet" fad. Look at your bill. If you did not provide subsidy to them through your bloated bill, the "investors" could not build wind farms. It is not economical, plus, you destroy the microclimate on mountain ridges where you put the wind farms. It's just another way to shaft the public

Are renewables affecting income distribution and increasing the risk
of household poverty?

- MikeFr 7y agoAlso the following is in German: https://www.tichyseinblick.de/wirtschaft/hans-werner-sinn-vernichtendes-urteil-ueber-energiewende/ https://www.tichyseinblick.de/wirtschaft/hans-werner-sinn-ve... Professor(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans-Werner_Sinn https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans-Werner_Sinn) says that moving to renewables will never work. Period
- shaki-dora 7y agoSome German has-been who is spending his retirement drifting off into right-wing populism isn't going to convince anybody.
- MikeFr 7y agoLet's use the word "populism" to denigrate opinions different than ours. It is not populism to force the public to fund the rich man's endevours, it is part of "saving the environment" The main fact I get from all of this, is that wind power introduces unstable parameters into the system and nobody denies that. You can not refute science. But hiking the prices up, destroying the environment, killing birds etc is not pupulism, is the new age life. I really want to know what was the global percentage of wind power generated in relation to other forms of generation. And let's make a study whether customers can afford their bills. And once your have your fact straight and can handle the truth, then go ahead and hit that flag button.

- matchbok 7y agoThe complaints about subsidies are so tired. Try harder.
- mkesper 7y agoI'd like that to be true, but these people are very much influencing those that want their statements to be true (so they don't need change anything).
- imtringued 7y agoThat man just wants to see the world burn. The reality looks different. Maybe renewables will never reach 100% but 70% or 80% is still a worthwhile goal to strive for. Even if the remainder is powered purely by natural gas it still is a net benefit over coal.
- cr1895 7y ago>If you did not provide subsidy to them through your bloated bill, the "investors" could not build wind farms. Your claim is easily refuted because subsidy-free wind farms are being built. https://english.rvo.nl/news/netherlands-looks-forward-second-offshore-wind-farm-without-subsidy https://english.rvo.nl/news/netherlands-looks-forward-second...
- 7952 7y agoOf course subsidies are used to pay off investors. That's the whole point. Without a return no one was ever going to invest.
