I really don't care as long as my electrical power is cheap.
I only have an associates degree in applied science for wind and solar power generation, also power plant opps so I doubt that someone reporter with an English major (a great indicationthat they couldnot pass a higher math to save their life) is going to tell me something that I am not already intimately well aware of.
Any article you see written by a reporter on renewable power is guaranteed to be at least one third BS.usually they are more like 70% to 90% BS, with the reminder being almost all pipe dream.

The US is now exporting more oil than impoted and natural gas has replaced coals energy market share thanks to hydraulic fracturing and to spite the best efforts of the Obama administration.
