Solar?

With these new “smart meters” we expect electrical usage to be eventually limited or rationed in some way. Especially when our Dear Leader declares oil drilling evil (thanks BP) and causes another energy crises. I want to be able to use electricity like our Dear Leader plays golf.

Electricity will not be rationed because of lack of oil.

The previous Dear Leader, before he departed, already caused oil to skyrocket in price so oil is hardly even used in electricity generation.

In 2008, “Largely due to a sharp rise in oil prices, petroleum-fired generation fell 29.7 percent, to 46 million MWh. Its share of total net generation dropped to 1.1 percent.”

Brian, I don’t think you understand what is coming. Cap and Trade is coming. This will limit ALL production of C02 from ANY source — and believe me when I tell you C02 is produced in the production of electricity. Whether it is generated from natural gas or coal it is going to be regulated. This is going to result in an energy crises and your electricity use is going to be limited or rates for large usage profiles will be made punitive. The Gulf leak is going to be used as another crises that shouldn’t be let to go to waste in order to help get it passed.

You made an assumption about the connection of oil to electricity production that I never made. I suggest you educate yourself on Cap and Trade legislation. Moreover, look into Dear Leader’s campaign promises to cripple the coal industry. As for Bush bashing, have at it — Democrats like Bush and hippies piss me off.

EDIT: Just saw Zeitgeist’s post…

I’m throwing a flag here! Stop the political threadjack. This is a question about the merits of installing solar systems on homes not Cap and Trade.

Thank you! I wish to someday install solar on the home I will hopefully someday buy, and this thread had been great until the shit flingers stepped in. Perfect example of the type of threadjacking that we don’t need. Note, however, that the jack was started by faterikcartman and his ‘Dear Leader’ comments, not brian. Although brian could have restrained himself from feeding the trolls.

AFX…- Try reading it again and try not being biased. Brian started it with his dear leader Bush bashing. Fair is fair. Brian cannot help injecting politics into the discussion of solar and as usual he is full of it. The increased cost of energy is germane to making the cost of a solar installation affordable.

Brian wrote: “Electricity will not be rationed because of lack of oil.”

“The previous Dear Leader, before he departed, already caused oil to skyrocket in price so oil is hardly even used in electricity generation.”
