I'm shocked and dismayed that you let go the amazing joke opportunity that arises between "GOP Congressman" and "amazing champion of the wind industry." Just sayin'.
At best, they're fighting a holding battle. As alternative energies become cheaper, there's no amount of money that can head it off at the pass. These dinosaurs are flushing their enormous profits down the toilet, and, in the end, it will be for nothing.
There's some serious blowing out in western Texas and Oklahoma. And wind farms, also too. Landowners out there are suddenly in love with the thousands of dollars they get paid in rent for each tower, and the jobs of installing and maintaining the turbines pay pretty well. Exxon's wholly-owned Congresscretins are going to have some 'splaining to do if they vote to fuck up the economies in those counties. Even Inhofe, the senior cretin from Oklahoma, might get his worthless ass handed to him if he continues to polish Exxon's knob.
Even money that the Kochs are the reason the sign exists. That, or local conspiraloons, with money from some millionaire who doesn't like looking at them from his mountain mansion.http://www.energyandpolicy....
There are fixed costs - somebody has to pay for the wires, whichever way the power flows - but the utilities compulsively lie their asses off about the numbers, because they think they're entitled to the same profits even as they sell less product. The result is that people get screwed, and/or don't believe the numbers they're being shown.
Solar City only does leases or power purchase agreements. You want to own your own panels, not lease them or buy their power.

If nothing else, the next four years may be a fascinating test of just how far politics can become divorced from physical reality.
Fascinating isn't the word I'd use.
Yup.

well because there is a "limited amount of wind" don't 'cha know?
"Horrifying realization" trumps "fascinating test".

His new stuff is great too, A Map of The Floating City.
Maybe Trump will get a clue when Mara Lago needs to be moved inland.
By far. And I like the usage of the word trumps here. ;-)
Nice!
