Andrew,
Points taken. The economy of scale for solar has taken large strides in the
past 10 years as production costs for solar panels have dropped and
conversion of light energy to electricity efficiency. per panel, has
increased.
Several large scale solar plants were on the plan prior to 2008
How do you build an elephant?

A few billion spent in government programs to stimulate ignorance and

Grant, I beg to differ. Idaho Power has just announced it proposes to
install utilities scale solar for 2 and a half cents per kilowatt hour. The
cheapest in history.

This is your daughter saying "I'm not having pre-martial sex because anal
doesn't count." its a lie so fundamental it makes me question everything else
said.
Remember I LIKE electric cars, they're fun to drive and can be quite good in
some situations, not for every situation but in many cases.
As Dimitri's friend Gael would say, "the perfect is the enemy of the good."

There is emission in the manufacture of the panels and turbines though, and

The hypocrisy of electric vehicles never ceases to amaze me. If you like EVs
that’s fine especially if you have a solar panel at your home to charge them
but the vast majority of people just use power from the grid. This power has to
come from somewhere.
