Todays Energy Use

[Guest]

a neighbour got woke and put in some chinese solar panels
he is getting SFA out of them , said they won't pay for themselves in 30 years

"lol" , wtf ?

Not sure why someone so bitter and resentful ends every sentence by sending Lots Of Love?

[chuckChuck]

Bitter and resentfull? Are you talking about yourself? I am neither.

Its just funny that Alberta is embracing renewables and looking at hydrogen and a few mal contents see new innovative technology and economic activity as the enemy.

Does he sweep the snow off? Mine are working great in this dry sunny weather. Short days are getting longer!

Well then, the Lots of Love comment makes lots of sense. Please continue.

And Alberta is looking at hydrogen too. If Alberta is interested it must be worth considering don't you think? LOL

Toyota is planning on all hydrogen vehicles. They already have one you can buy. Several heavy equipment builders are looking at hydrogen as a source of fuel.

At least you are consistent you didn't address anything I said but very typical of the average voter who doesn't question what they are told.

well , i am still mildly interested and think they have uses
could you post pics of your back feed to Sask power , say a week apart in this weather?
did you have any luck getting your massive power bill down ? that is a humdinger , what you used in a year !!!!
we have got our power bill so low through various energy saving applications , i don't think we could make sense of it ?
if i PM'd you his cell could you talk to him , maybe he has a problem you could help him with?
he does clean them regularly

Did he say what the purchase cost was and what the capacity of them is?

I don’t understand the return on investment of these panels yet.

I did a little more math on the solar requirements to generate enough hydrogen to replace passenger vehicle gasoline in Alberta. In Alberta to produce the 21279.5 kwh per year to produce the hydrogen you would need a 16700 watt solar array. Installed per watt ground mount system is roughly $2.80 per watt or $46760 per person. Total installed solar requirements would be 73950 megawatts. At 4.5 acres per megawatt this translates to 332775 acres of panels or 2080 quarter sections. Remember this is just to produce the hydrogen. Now in my area if the land was bought to mount the solar panels at $750000 a quarter that is $1.56 billion just for the land, obviously different land that is less expensive would have to be used. Anyway the numbers are certainly daunting. Do you think Justin Trudeau and his merry band ever think past their virtue signalling platitudes?!

[SASKFARMER]

No, they arent very smart when it comes to math.

Trudeau the budget will balance itself.

These are idiots and they never get math like most liberals.

Oh, they know Spelling and most have liberal arts degrees.
