Cheap wind power ????

[fjlip]

Except in the real world, where, for example, Germany with wind and solar has electricity prices almost 70% higher than France using nuclear, and Germany has much higher CO2 emissions.

Choke on that greenies!

Choke on that greenies!

The greenies don't believe in real world data, only theoretical models.

Even though the real world proves them wrong every single time.

Obviously the real world is wrong since it doesn't reflect their unicorn beliefs.

When Bill Gates needs reliable power he doesn't worry about virtue signaling with unreliable wind or solar.
He just restarts Three Mile Island.

Chuckroach uses the numbers from pixie and unicorn land, just because Chuckroach can find the numbers it doesn’t make the numbers real.

[chuckChuck]

Sask Power's analysis that says wind and solar are the lowest cost new generation sources are not from the real world?

Backed up by Lazards LCOE which has the numbers from numerous examples in the US.

Those aren't real world enough?

Its the flat earthers who are living in a fantasy land!

[TSIPP]

SaskPower has the real number we just see the fairy tail numbers.

[chuckChuck]

Glad you agree Tsipper that Sask Power knows what they are talking about.

[TSIPP]

The numbers are just like your lefty numbers, make believe fairy tale stories.

[shtferbrains]

Some areas seem to have much more volitivity in pricing?
Seems the areas that have the higher percentage of wind and solar?

There's that Louisiana/Texas comparison again.

Louisiana is not on board with the renewable future.
Maybe they don't follow Lazards Investment Banks promo spin?

A lot of NH3 production there.

A funny thing happens on the way from "cheapest new generation", to most expensive consumer electricity.
Every
Single
Time.

[chuckChuck]

So Sask power is wrong?

Then show us the numbers that show Sask Power is wrong about renewables being the lowest cost new generation sources.

Instead of comparing apples and oranges compare wind and solar to the cost of nuclear and natural gas in the same state or province.

Lazards LCOE has done a national US comparison but you don't believe them either?

Put up or shut up or show us the numbers. I am betting you will run and hide again!

Saskatchewan has regulated rates Alberta has a deregulated electricity market like Texas. Rates are higher in Alberta than Saskatchewan because of economic with holding and profit taking by producers driving up the prices. And both have renewables.

Manitoba has even lower rates using renewable hydro. And plans on expanding capacity with lots of wind.

When SaskPower says that a new solar system will out last a new natural gas power station, how can we believe the numbers?

what does coal electricity cost? I emailed SaskPower and they won’t tell me, what’s the secret?

[chuckChuck]

They say they both have about the same lifespan.

Don’t Wind And Solar Projects Have Short Lifespans?

Reality: The average lifespan of newer wind turbines is more than 30 years. For a solar facility, it’s also about 25 to 30 years. With good maintenance, that can be even longer!

Background: For a comparison, the average lifespan for a natural gas power station is also 25 to 30 years.
