Pieces of Malarkey liked Fangbeer's post in the thread Nuclear energy is more expensive than renewables, CSIRO report finds.
It's funny to me how these statements keep getting recycled. Bowerbird says that batteries don't have to be lithium and then shows me a system with a tenth the energy density...

No chip on my shoulder. You're just locked into the same garbage environazis have been pushing for 50 years. And it's still crashing and burning on the shoals of irrelevance.

Hmmm, that's a new one for me. Stupid, but not one I've heard before. A suggestion, don't quit your day job for that comedy career.

It’s never had to pay itself off. Half the initial cost was paid by the government. There were also about $35M in direct subsidies and $74M in special low interest “green...

Pieces of Malarkey liked Uriah's post in the thread What is the primary reason you support Trump?.
I support Trump because democrats can't control him. Trump gives democrats the finger and ignores their threats. I admire anyone who stands up to bullies.

If any of that were actually true, there'd be no controversy at all. Everybody would convert to EVs on their own without government forcing it on people. It's just not true.

Sorry, but the greater the load the shorter the range, and time is money, so no, EV semis will almost never be the better choice. I could imagine light duty EV delivery trucks...

Heck, the Tesla semi can't even pull a semi very far comparatively. EVs always operate at full torque. Not real impressive if you're looking for usefulness and not cheap thrills.
