Comment on Based arguments for solar
Dave@lemmy.nz 1 week ago
My governments arguments against solar: we need to build a billion dollar storage facility for natural gas because hydo doesn’t work in dry years and solar is too unreliable.
Me: you’re saying we need gas because solar is unreliable
Government: correct, the sun isn’t always shining
Me: and hydro has dry years
Government: yes, sometimes it’s just sunny all the time so there’s no rain for the hydo lakes
Me: 🤦
