Truth about Solar & Wind energy no one talks about...

The South Texas Project nuclear plant produces 300 horsepower per acre of land used, about the same as natural gas, with oil close behind. Wind power produces 6.4 horsepower per acre, solar photovoltaic 36 hp per acre, biomass 2.1. Corn ethanol requires about 1,150 times as much land as nuclear to produce the same horsepower.

So, Solar & Wind as alternative sources of OIL? Really?

Last straw if you ask, Solar & Wind provide intermittent power supply so there is a need of some sort of a storage device, e.g., battery (Lithium Shortage anyone?), to be able to supply uninterrupted power supply.

Bottomline - Solar & Wind sources are overrated - its kinda cutesy to install a solar panel on your roof as long as (1) you care about getting the bragging rights of how green you've become and importantly (2) government is giving you cash back in form of incentives to go solar. Short Capitalism!!
