The Forbes link is Shellenberger, it's even in the URL. I'm not going to plough through a 224 page joint Nuclear Energy Agency / OECD study, with 8 page densely packed conclusion. I don't trust Shellenberger to distil anything honestly - he has way too much form.
- sien 7y agoSeriously, what is the country or countries that are doing renewables well and cheaply?
- NeedMoreTea 7y agoWithout any awareness of relative pricing I'd have liked to see comparisons with nations who haven't had the well reported issues Germany has had, with negative prices and what seems a huge proportion of solar given their latitude - along with recent increases of using lignite. The "obvious" choices would seem to be Sweden, Iceland, Morocco, Denmark and UK. Perhaps China, or even Costa Rica who seem to have the world's most ambitious target - carbon free by 2021. I'm sure there's others progressing quickly.
