You and a few other make these stupid remarks/statements. Clearly you

swallowed the propaganda like the credulous fools you are without even
slight research.

It doesn't take much research to show that your favoured options of
photovoltaic and wind generation are totally useless and actually
*increase* pollution per kilowatt hour of energy used over and above
that
caused by burning fossil fuels. Though I did meet someone last year who
had spent a year researching renewables and came to the conclusion that
they're a waste of time, money and effort. That's what he wrote in his
thesis, anyway. (In Chinese, as that's where he came from)

Once manufactured, no pollution is created.
Virually no maintenance is needed.;
There are no parasitic losses.



And no leccy when the air pressure is the same across the land and not a
lot of power at night otherwise excellent thingies)!...

He hasn't worked out yet that having to run fossil fuelled stations in
their most inefficient mode all the time to even out the massive
variations in renewable energy sources causes pollution. Unless he's of
the opinion that all energy usage can be shut off during the hours of
darkness and when the wind's not blowing. So, we'll all start going to bed
at sunset and get up at sunrise, no evening TV or radio, no radio alarm
clocks, food spoiling more quickly in storage due to unstable temperatures
in fridges and so on and on and on....


You do talk some drivel
You haven't worked out that PV is only part of the solution and any
supplimentary (fossil/gas) power will not come from come from cnventional
power stations as we have today.

So where O wise one will it come from then?.

Realistic real world answers please?...



And power will be more expensive in times of dearth and non-essential stuff
will be shut off.

You remember the three day week well then;?..
