Funny the 2 naysayers own EVs and PV panels on their homes...

Anyhow, would be good to hear some news of real advancements that make renewables more widely viable rather than something that serves niche markets or those that are heavily subsidized.

I've researched microhydro at my parents property. Perhaps it's simply that those who know the subject matter the most understand the difficulties of implementing the technology, whereas the evangelists think it's just a matter of will, and not of practical reality.
