Out of sight and in some other state.
It amuses me that the want to eliminate reliable means of power generation, but aren't willing to have the unreliable plants put where they can see them.
It occurs to me that we could just build a nuke plant some place and TELL the greenies the power is coming from wind or solar.
They're idiots, they'd never know.
We could even make a "device" that lights up a green LED when plugged into a wall socket to show that they're getting "certified" green energy.
DON'T STEAL MY IDEA! I think I can retire on this!
I am further amused that there are vast wind farms in the midwest that are owned and operated by the company I pay every month for my electricity. Wind farms that don't supply the local grid at all, they transmit it down here.
We have wind farms to the West and East of us. Day time isn't so bad but after dark...
ReplyDeleteThe stupid blinking red lights on the horizon marking the tower location ruin the night view.

Be sure to reduce the power beginning at civil twilight, then shut it off completely at sunset to make sure they understand it's from a "renewable source." And, since your primary customers will not be using it, sell their unused power to everyone else on the grid.
