I take your point on the economics, especially if transport costs of diesel fuel are high. It would mainly hinge on whether the site has viable wind/solar + battery options. On ships/arctic bases renewable is not viable. I was thinking security costs of 24/7 manned security which would probably not be needed for Wind/Solar farms. It would be the same costs for fossil fuel plants that's true.
