It's at this juncture I will let you "roam free".... grab as much spurious nonsense as you wish and post it.... , the current Alternative engery position is impoverished becasue it continues to use evidence known to be spurious in a vain attempt support a preferred belief. Clearly, much of the pro Alternatives position remains tied up in quasi Gya type belief, or worse, preference deals.
As alternative sources of power proliferate this century, and they will, the oxygen for the extreme Earth Mother inspired religiosity will diminish and reason will prevail, we are a long way from that Dawn of Reason. Alternative sources of Power will become mainstream in this century and as they gain in efficiency they will no longer need to be subsidized, Alternative power will find its "level" in our Grid, Alternative power may even become the majority of power flowing into our Grid! In saying all this History will show the current day and extreme positions held by the pundits of Alternative energies too share the same basis in fact as the arguments used to support the health-giving properties of Radium in the 19C none.
SA's are paying through the nose for unreliable power. Belief has no place in a National Grid, what you "want" has no place in a National Grid.
A National Grid is about providing stable, inexpensive power to the Nation. It's not about MIddle-Class feel-good welfare aka subsidized Solar Panels or the simply ludicrous idea of using Lithium based mass storage rather than lead-acid based mass storage. The SA Gov has in effected asked a Savile Row Tailor to make an ill-fitting suit, SA's have paid a Savile Row price and ending up with a Hyperloop. Lithium-based mass storage highlights the profligate waste of Gov inspired misplaced "faith" or simple dirty preferencing.
There is no place in the National Grid for Gaia purists or preference deals the National Grid is about the efficient the delivery of power.
