Happy Chuck?

Olaf Shultze wont be in power inside of a yr. and probably neither will Trudeau. I am ashamed to be German canadian as these 2 clowns make us look bad.

There will be no windfarm offshore in the maritimes. Nobody is going to fund windmills in a known iceberg and hurricane zone. I mean once Greenland starts melting, there will be hundreds of them making their way south.

There are no facilities even capable of using hydrogen yet. It could be blended with nat gas for heating but Germany doesnt want any of our LNG thats not ready either and the feds scuttled 2 projects already.

Shultz might as well build another Hindenberg

Oh shit somebodies wrong again! All they do is produce "some" energy according to our resident arm chair analyst. 49% is just "some" and the last 120 days is out of date! And Canada is a terrible country! I rest my case.

Renewables provide 49% of power used in Germany in first half of 2022

FRANKFURT, July 5 (Reuters) - Renewable energy accounted for 49% of German power consumption in the first half of 2022, up 6% percentage points from a year earlier thanks to favourable weather conditions, industry groups said on Tuesday.

Both higher sunshine intensity and wind speeds were behind the trend, utility industry association BDEW and the Centre for Solar Energy and Hydrogen Research (ZSW) said in a statement.

Sounds like they should be weaned off of Russian natural gas any minute now then. Do you have any guesses why they are paying such exorbitant electricity prices with all that free wind and solar installed?

Try reading my previous post again. The efficiency of wind and solar in a country with such dismal wind and solar resources, results in having to install far more capacity to make up for the pitiful capacity factor. Hence the high prices.

Many in today's society are effected by a condition described as "belief perserverance".

"Belief perseverance is maintaining a belief despite new information that firmly contradicts it. Such beliefs may even be strengthened when others attempt to present evidence debunking them, a phenomenon known as the backfire effect"

I think they used to call it propaganda effect or brainwashing.

Or as Climate Barbie said just keep saying it loud enough and long enough people will believe.

Chuck seem to be a firm believer in chanting the same thing over and over.

“Higher sunshine intensity”. If you were as smart as you think you are Chuck2 you would realize Europe is experiencing a drought hence the higher sunshine intensity. Combine that with mandated reduced consumption to conserve natural gas and then the environuts can start claiming great results. And why if renewables are producing half of the electricity is electricity so expensive in Germany? You always tell us it is almost free!

Interesting debate as always.

Housing yeah full throttle renewable.

Read somewere the other day wasn’t a right wing loonie article but Australia I think biggest cement producer factory if they combined all the batteries in Australia and wind towers to charge em up the power stored in batteries would be of use for 20 minutes when factory was 100% flat strap.

Maybe no brainer for houses , bussiness yeah a way to go yet.

Err Glenn why are you a member of shithole agrisilly if you despise it so much.

Are there not other sites where there is less excrement.

[chuckChuck]

In one post it's an interesting discussion and in the next you suggest I should leave? Make up your mind.

And the man from downunder is annoyed I call out the Canada is a shithole club on Agrisilly?

I appreciate your contributions from down under but sometimes they are contradictory.

Australia is thinking about building some renewable ammonia/hydrogen facilities based on the vast amount of solar energy available? What do you think. How far along are they?

[AlbertaFarmer5]

Chuck, you seem to be avoiding addressing the issue of why the free solar and wind energy in Germany and everywhere else it has been tried results in such atrociously high electricity prices.
Since I brought that up, you have insulted posters in two different continents, insulted the website that hosts this discussion, repeatedly used childish name calling and insults, and attempted to deflect and change the subject multiple times yo something completely irrelevant.
Do you have any explanation as to why free energy costs so much to the consumer?

Tis interesting discussion you just don’t have to have to carry on like a drongo mate.

Yeah few hoops to get through but it’s gonna be a combination of energy sources.
Like I said business is struggling with renewables.

No brainer to use renewables in many situations. Tidal power or guess it’s hydro is being talked about in another state, has the worlds biggest and most consistent tidal movements, but go figure greens are the fly in the ointment there.

Is that clear enough glen. I try to respect the site and others even when I disagree mate guess we’re cut from a different cloth. Each to there own.
