This is something solar/wind zealots often like to repeat, while hand-waving away the fact that those energy sources work when they want to, not when you want them to.
If you want a reliable, clean power grid, there's one option, and it's not solar and wind.
- _ph_ 4y agoThat is wrong. There are multiple options and the environmental friendly ones consist of mostly solar and wind.
- mcronce 4y agoNot really, no. You either need storage tech that doesn't exist and might or might not be possible, or you need to grossly overbuild intermittent sources everywhere and make megagrids, the likes of which the world has never seen. Maybe those are possible. Maybe they aren't. We don't know. There is precisely one known working option.
