Boat + 1,323 RG March 28, 2022 Pumped Hydro doesn't have to be on a river. It just needs enough water to match evaporation. It also needs one elevated pool of water and one lower pool of water. Solar and/or wind can supply the electricity to pump water uphill when it’s cheap. Of course you recreate electricity when prices are higher. The balance renewables need can be expanded by forgetting about fish territory. Any big hill near an ocean or lake works if cheap land is near. Just another area tech will make more relevant as time goes by. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it is great that we are onshoring industry again. My favorites are the green industries such as battery making which are absolutely critical to the continued success of the green revolution. Oh and don't worry, green investment will continue to increase faster than token fossil investment. Enjoy the show. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But you could have gotten a Prime. More importantly though is the fact that you are not a Green so the only reason you got a hybrid was to save money. Yet another great example of Green technologies being lower cost than fossil. Thank you for helping make my point.
