The assertion that Renewables are cheaper than fossil fuelled
electricity generation is an oxymoron because if that were to be true
private enterprise would have stepped up and replaced fossil fuelled
electricity generation decades ago.

Our capitalist system over time favours the lowest cost inputs and
the highest revenue outcomes........in short, the maximisation of profit!

If we are to be truthful we simply have to ask what more are consumers willing
to pay for carbonless electricity be it solar/battery, wind/battery, nuclear or
hydrogen where the hydrogen is manufactured by solar/wind etc.

I'm willing to pay 10% more for my electricity if that's what it takes to go carbonless.
What about you?

Eventually electricity prices will fall.
Small scale, distributed, mass produced nuclear reactors will do it.

Solar and wind power are merely a passing fad. Our grandchildren will laugh at those logical culture de sacs as we laugh at early model "walking cars".
