Renewable Energy Is Often Extremely Inexpensive
It’s always good to see credible people debunking the myth that renewable energy is expensive. Though there are many possible dimensions to this discussion, Colorado ex-governor Bill Ritter takes the most obvious tack possible in his Wall Street Journal blog, i.e., explaining that, depending on various conditions, renewables are often far cheaper than coal – and even cheaper than natural gas.
I’ve always liked the cut of Ritter’s jib, ever since I saw him speak at the Renewable Energy Finance Forum a few years ago. Nice going.
