Whereas the renewables argument doesn't hold water at all, once you look

I think there is a perception amongst many people that "renewable"
energy is cheap, after all the wind and sun are free. This is possibly
reinforced by people who have solar panels on their roofs saving on
their energy bills but with the media failing to point out it's at the
expense of everyone else who doesn't have these installations.
