No I am not wrong on any of this stuff. Solar and wind aren't projected to be more than around 3%-4% in 2040 there is nothing exponential about that at all. T

They cant compete and have made energy more expensive in ex. germany and Denmark where it's being subsidized by the taxpayer any look at an invoice from the energy supplier makes that painfully clear.
The fact that renewables can't solve those things makes it less attractive because with oil you get those extra uttilitizes so when you extract the cost is divided on those different areas. Thats just hard to compete with. So yes the other renewables aren't hardware, thats just one of their problems.
No nuclear isn't hard, it was at times almost as cheap as coal back when it was less regulated.
Renewables aren't cheap they are expensive which you would see once you started investing in it and which is why almost no one do. Keep in mind this isn't some product market fit problem. If we could do fuel-cells it would be a pretty safe bet so there isn't really much excuse when investing in energy which is exactly my point. It's pretty hard to find alternatives, not hard to find one that works if it existed.
- beat 7y agoSolar and wind are more than 3-4% already. Where are you getting your projections?
- ThomPete 7y agoNope, I think you are confusing it with electricity. Electricity is only a subset of energy. https://www.iea.org/weo/?fbclid=IwAR3eH1AFcRSPSEit8JINLCMvE_UmZAsNNdxRRpIepIGqCz_rILNEHHwLtNw https://www.iea.org/weo/?fbclid=IwAR3eH1AFcRSPSEit8JINLCMvE_...
