The reality of German electricity
Is that it costs a lot more than in the US. And they burn about the same amount of coal as we do, per capita.
Sure, they drive tiny cars, and they drive less. What's that have to do with electricity? Their grid isn't very clean at all, they burn a lot of coal. They have some eleborate statistics that disguise this because they brag about how much energy they produce on a sunny day. The proof is in the pudding - they're burning that coal, come rain or come shine. All their FIT did was reward the solar panel producers. Nelder wants us to do the same here. Wonder why? Check out his book - "profit from renewables".
Why this snake oil salesman gets a soap box is beyond me. Actually it isn't - as Nelder doesn't get published much beyond this very narrow medium.
