Yikes - haven't been on this thread for a while....looks like I haven't missed anything:

 

Anyhoo : http://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2015-03-11/battery-hackers-are-building-the-future-in-the-garage

 

Pretty cool article - once battery storage jumps a couple of levels - you guys can shut down this thread - Most power will be sun/wind/geothermal/water - with no CO2/ geopolitical considerations - or for that matter cost considerations...

 

How much can be solved by science....

 

Call me when a solution actually exists. Until then, it's wishful thinking, not science.

Nope because that will help solar become more popular which only hurts poor people.

They already have one. It has a greater wingspan than a 747, flies two people, has a top speed of 43 mph, and only flies at night. Don't expect any commercial applications anytime soon.

So you didn't read the article you posted? I didn't think so.

You mean about how the power companies were bloating about nonsense that you believed without question? Did you meet those officials, lol ?

So you're saying poor people will be able to afford to put solar panels on their homes (often rentals) to take advantage of the cheap solar energy?

Sure, especially after we institute a financial transaction tax, a wealth tax, uncap the payroll tax, eliminate the tax exempt status of churches, and a special tax for former chefs who's name starts with a J- ............................ah the sweet smell of redistribution .

Which will all get to the poor because with all the taxation and social safety nets we have already the poor have almost completely disappeared.

 

Funny how the poor have stayed poor or in come cases gotten poorer but politicians are becoming millionaires.

Poor compared to what? The poor are much better off than before thanks to government

 

And are you suggesting politicians didn't get wearily in the past?

Someone had to believe we could go to the moon before we got there

What you fellas don't understand is that our power grid is full of Chinese, Russian, Iranian, and ISIL malware just sitting there waiting to be exploited thus moving people off grid is a national security issue and as a national security issue we can throw unlimited money at the problem and if you want to fight against that then you are traitors who want to weaken America.
