I have friends living "off the grid"...above Cascadia, OR...giant solar array, small windmill, all the off the grid goodies. Still, Jean was complaining about the cost of diesel for the generator...
Sorry, but the "green" energy sources just aren't there yet when it comes time to supplying need.
Tidal generators? They show promise, but the "greens" promptly filed suit to prevent even a small experimental program here.
I have to agree with Walter Williams, who calls "greens" Watermelons. Green on the outside, red in the middle.
