No its smart. With wind energy you would get cheap energy which would be in competition with energy made of oil. Which means Trumps friends and big lobbyists would get as much money as they could.
God forbid to use local private owned solar energy. Then every energy company loses. Everything woudl be decentralized. This cannot be. This would be communism.

Yeah, they had to shut down 3 plants as well due to the heat.

Nuclear power is dumb. It makes us depended on reactor fuel imports and it’s not a stable power source during heat waves.

Think about it, we now have load shedding and rolling blackouts in the EU. This used to be a thing in africa. Now it’s here, and not because of solar and wind, it’s because of nuclear power fails during the heat!

Wind is sub-optimal to Solar and Nuclear.
The main issue that no one but engineers talk about is the gyroscopic effect and wear from it on standard wind turbines.
My area has a LOT of steady wind, and 10hrs~ of sunlight a day.
In the area we've seen people try both, I run solar.
All the guys that had windmills have inconsistent power generation and major wear and tear.
Plus it was ridiculously over priced.
Solar on the other hand has been the easiest to maintain, and much more consistent energy generation.

If it is cheaper to gift money to France instead of building a power grid that can run on solar / wind energy, will such a power grid ever become sustainable?

Batteries exist and you need gas as a backup for emergencies anyways. Might as well use them rarely when there's neither wind nor sun.
Pumpspeicher is very different. You can't build those anywhere at a river. You need a mountain since efficiency depends on how high the drop is.

>German ones are 25% more efficient
wdym? 25% MORE efficient than chinese ones? huh? that'd be CRAZY, you must be mixing up some stats lol

there is an efficiency stat in solar cel capture of sunlight and the maximum theoretical is 30% while the rest is heat

german ones usually hover around 23.5%
chinese hover around 24% and are leaders

chinese are also super cheap because of the economy of scale WHICH ALSO helps you, since german panels rely on chinese cell wafers

however a few days ago china shattered the world record at 29.2% efficiency https://okdiario.com/techy/en/trina-solar-set-a-world-record-with-a-commercial-panel-at-29-2-efficiency-and-907-watts-verified-independently-by-tuv-sud/7014/

Nuclear fuel bundles can be bought in advance and then used during wartime. Pipeline gas is very cheap but vulnerable. Renewables and coal are local resources, but not necessarily the best option in peacetime. The idea that we need to be 100% independent from America's enemies all the time is bullshit. That's just economic sabotage meant to enrich the mutts. Funny how people who pretend to hate Trump demand Germany's eternal devotion to our worst enemy.

>>540369725
Not really. All wind power plants are heavily subsidized. The gowernment agrees to a certain price and pays that price no matter what for every W they produce. It's cheaper to pay them upfront than to pay them for decades when they produce electricity that is not needed (usually when it's windy it's overproduction of electricity and tye government has to pay gas power plants to shut down, so that wind power plant could keep producing electricity)

Like everything that motivates orange man, it's about petty spite. Scotland built some wind turbines near his golf course and since then he's vowed to do everything in his power to wipe it out at any cost.

But wind energy is still making great progress here despite decades of Republican attempts to destroy it in favor of oil bribes.
