Renewable energy advocates said that cheap solar panels meant California's electricity prices would stop rising That was a lie California's electricity prices will rise more than 50% by 2030 California electric prices rose 42% - 78% between 2010 and 2020

Shocking new data

"We are in a rate crisis with electricity costs growing faster than inflation, inequity rising, & wildfire costs coming," said the public advocate at the Cal Public Utilities Commission California rates increased 7x more than they did in rest of US





We now know that a big reason solar panels became cheaper is because China's Uyghur Muslims were given the choice of concentration camps or working in solar panel factories And yet Democrats still don't support a ban on Chinese solar genocide panels

The renewable energy ship is sinking faster than ever Watch for rats fleeing the ship, like Union of Concerned Scientists, which now admits that closing California's Diablo Canyon will increase carbon emissions Here's how they cover their behinds:

Replying to
California is the Democrats' climate model for the rest of the US, even though it has the sixth highest electricity prices in the U.S., which hurts the poor most, and suffers blackouts due to over-reliance on weather-dependent energies


Replying to
I mean... predictions and truth? No one knows where technology will go but I doubt solar will be dominant in five- ten years unless it doubles in efficiency.

Not going to happen. Even the best performing models of the most common types of solar panels only saw their efficiency rise by 2-3 percentage points over the last decade. The cause of panel cost declines was forced labor and supply chain efficiencies in China, not innovation

A lot of people are assholes on Twitter because they're dealing with unresolved trauma. Here, their words cause a reaction that gets them attention they can't get in their real life... And attention and love look the same to someone not used to receiving either.
