@11112011 @FailForward @jwildeboer I don't have a problem with subsidies per se (assuming that they're well executed...) just that their use needs to be strategically thought out, particularly given the Russian question.

@jwildeboer @FailForward this isn't the whole picture unless you know what the variance on renewables are, although the fact that there's not rolling blackouts in Germany shows they've got it under control.

@jwildeboer @FailForward sure, I don't have a problem with renewables as long as they're properly planned.

Hundreds of billions are currently flowing to Russia because, among other things, Germany is reliant on their gas to keep the wheels turning.

@11112011 @FailForward @jwildeboer can say the same, perhaps more, of nuclear, hydro etc.

@fluffy ok

@FailForward @jwildeboer solar and wind are available intermittently, so when they go down the grid goes down unless you can store that energy.

without solving this problem renewable energy initiatives are just expensive, politically correct boondoggles

@FailForward how do you think they're gonna deal with the variance of renewables?

@augustus he's not bad

@solidsanek do it, and turn off the bullshit "reskin" with tab, the original has more charm

@ITM we got the Indians to do the cooking, they're much better at it
