Not here to debate if it's good or bad. Just explaining why people don't like him in Europe.

Recyclable..... at what financial cost?

Irrelevant again. Still cheaper than digging and burning

Quote:

How do you expect to be able to recycle the emissions from any fuel sourced power?
I don't. That's my point.

And if you're going to bring petrol into this....are we to take that you're offloading your environmentally unfriendly V8's in favour of EV's shortly?
No, appreciating renewables doesn't mean I want to sell my V8's. As I've said over and over, it's not one or the other, us vs them. I enjoy both worlds.

Not so easy for me.... Guessing you live in suburbia?



Just paid my power bill for the quarter, $1074, just shy of 900 this time last year, and a touch over 800 the year before that, not in suburbia, and only 1 electricity provider here
I got solar a few years ago and my bills went from $1800 a quarter to $50 in summer (this year was negative $35 over December and January) and $200 a quarter in winter. Payback time for the solar is a few years. Totally understand that not everyone can afford the outlay. Panels last 25 years.

The free energy plans are sold to rural customers too but again accept that your area might not qualify. Still worth checking out. Check out Ovo Energy if you're in their supply area.
