Not So Viable Alternatives.
The New York Times has a “Drawbacks of Alternative Energy 101” piece in today’s edition.
Matt Wald breaks down some of the problems associated with wind and solar: peak generation hours are inconsistent with peak demand and a lack of a broadly implemented storage technology,
There’s nothing particularly new here other than some information about storage technologies that may or may not work, but it is worth noting that, as more states follow California’s lead and go green, the problems are getting more attention and are harder to ignore.
