IDK what your definition of green is but I'm fine with using gas (methane) to pick up the slack for wind/solar/nuclear if it is made with electrical surpluses from wind/solar/nuclear in a carbon neutral way.
- tsimionescu 4y agoThat still requires you to store that gas on bright windy days so you can use it weeks or months later on overcast still nights, so I am lumping it with "storage technologies". Today, "coal and gas" means using fossil fuels, not renewable coal and gas produced out of CO2 in air, and I expect this to remain true for quite a while longer - the temptation will be too large, given the price difference.
