Comparing consistency of output between Natural gas and Solar

[chuckChuck]

Whats not going to happen?

So shite for brains you have better global analysis than the International Energy Agency?

"renewables remain the fastest-growing source of electricity for data centres, with total generation increasing at an annual average rate of 22% between 2024 and 2030, meeting nearly 50% of the growth in data centre electricity demand. This growth is primarily driven by the rising deployment of wind and solar PV in power systems across the globe, with some of the new capacity financed through PPAs with technology companies. Some data centre operators also invest directly in co-located renewables."

Analysis? International Energy Agency? Paid propaganda?

[chuckChuck]

If that's your only argument then give up some dumb guy! LOL

But there isn’t a free market AB5.

Yes, isn't it ironic that the same people who are violently opposed to a two-tiered medical system, are the most enthusiastic supporters of the two-tiered power generation system. One set of rules and extremely generous subsidies for the generators who contribute the least, and a much stricter set of rules for everyone else who actually keep the lights on 24/7.

Absurd 5 Danny Smith had to find a way to slow down renewables in Alberta because they were becoming too successful under the deregulated free market!

So she developed a 2 tiered land use policy that doesn't apply to oil and gas!

Maybe Chuck is right about solar panels running the AI Data centers.
Elon Musk says he can put the computers on on satellites in space.
No cooling required and 24 hr sunlight for the solar panels
SpaceX will be worth trillions.

"renewables remain the fastest-growing source of electricity for data centres"

The absolute LAST thing data centres need is ON Off power! Phucks everything up! Wakeup !

[chuckChuck]

Have you heard of multiple sources of electricity to back up renewables Flipper? LOL

[fjlip]

Real simple to have ZERO backup needed, only adds costs and complication!

[shtferbrains]

When the subsidies stop, the new builds stop.
Simple economics.
We can't afford to borrow any more money for green dreams.
