If All You See…

…is a field perfect for solar panels, you might just be a Warmist

    That’s terrible place for solar panels. Solar panels should be placed on the roofs of suburb homes, apartments and urban factories. Those roofs aren’t doing anything anyway.

    • JimS says:

      Rooftop solar depends a lot on the orientation of your house. In my neighborhood, 99% of the houses have east-west facing roofs. Same in my folk’s subdivision. Our garage has the proper orientation, but is blocked by a huge mulberry tree, that would be hard to lose… It’s CO2 sequestering and O2 generation are more important anyway.

      • Professor Hale says:

        Cut it down. Since when have energy policies needed to conform to the whims of tree huggers, or even make sense? East-West orientation is fine. It can be corrected with expensive steel supports. marginal energy is better than no energy. Money is no object when it comes to solar. Efficiency is no object either. Neither is common sense nor economic utility. Do it because it makes Harvard educated bureaucrats happy that the paper they wrote on a long weekend while they were stoned is going to be made into public policy. And they are so much smarter than the rest of us that we should all be forced to live with their ideas.

    “Much like the election protests that led to the persecution of President Trump and so many of his closest supporters, the Rittenhouse incident reveals a lot about the state of the current system, and pace the manifest doomer content, I believe that there is a silver lining in the storm clouds, a silverpill, if you will. Rittenhouse and Trump, each in his own way, and at different ends of the continuum of power, revealed an important truth about the system: it is weak, tottering, and stands firm only insofar as pressure is not applied. The arrests, the censorship, the desperate lies are signs not of power but of fear, inchoate and visceral, a fear that springs from a dawning awareness of its own illegitimacy, that only the inertia and rapidly dismantling norms of prosperity past keep the normies on couches and out of the streets.”

    Solar panels work in the daytime 50%
    Wind is stronger at night 50%
    If only there was someone smart enough to somehow mesh these 2 together……..

    • Jl says:

      If only someone had discovered something that was miles better than that unreliable technology. Oh, wait, they did. Fossil fuels

    • Dana says:

      While winds might be stronger at night, sometimes the wind doesn’t blow at all. And not every day is sunny and bright; sometimes it even rains during the day.

  4. Dana says:

    Note how the ground rises there, facing the direction of the sun. That’s perfect for solar panels!

    As it happens, my property, and the adjacent farmland along this riverbank, faces south southwest, perfect for a solar farm. However, it’s a bit flood prone, so maybe that wouldn’t work after all.

    • Professor Hale says:

      So you are saying you have hydro potential too? If only some smart guy could figure a way to link hydro power with wind and solar in some sort of “Smart ” grid to deliver nearly 65% of the full time power generated by coal or natural gas.

  5. Elwood P. Dowd says:

    If only burning fossil fuels didn’t release carbon dioxide…

    If “if” were a skiff, we could sail away.
