Consequently with the dramatic decrease in efficiency of
fuel burn in the standby fossil
fuel generators there is sweet FA practical reduction in CO2 emissions with the introduction of wind and
solar power generation systems particularly when the energy costs of the producing and building the so called renewable energy systems are added to the grossly inefficient running of the ready to go to full generation capacity in minutes, fossil
fuel powered standby
generators which in many cases must be kept running at low or zero power generation to be able to come on line in minutes when the so called renewable energy systems fail to produce power,
If power
generator owners and governments had decreed that the most inefficient and most unreliable, most costly power generation systems that could be conceived to generate power for our modern civilisation were to be the norm then the so called renewable energy systems of wind and
solar along with highly inefficient fossil
fuel burning idling
generators as standby's when the renewables fail to produce power then it is doubtful that a more hopelessly inefficient and unreliable system could be devised for a civilisation that depends so utterly on having dead steady, totally reliable, at call power every second of every day to run that civilisation's entire very sophisticated structures
DERs can include
solar panels, combined heat and power plants, electricity storage, small natural gas -
fuelled generators, electric vehicles and controllable loads, such as HVAC systems and electric water heaters.
replacing — where possible — diesel -
fuelled generators with
solar panels and other renewable energy sources;
When they replace our coal power with with junk wind and
solar there is a really good chance our ACs won't work, unless we all put in fossil
fuel powered
generators.
And if a practical technique is ever found, its primary economic benefit will not come from enabling windmills and
solar farms, but from allowing the expansion of base - load fossil
fuel generators, making it possible to reduce the fleet of peak - load facilities.
Work in the Scale - Up and Prototyping program informs the JCAP scientific efforts as to where key performance levers are and also identifies gaps revealed by real - world implementation of an integrated
solar -
fuels generator based on artificial photosynthesis.
For instance, using
solar panels, battery storage and microgrids instead of using fossil
fuels and
generators can deliver the power safely to enclosed campuses.
Grid - connected
solar panels were also installed on about five government buildings across the island and new
fuel - efficient diesel
generators replaced aging ones.
When I looked at US figures the amount of real support provided fossil
fuel companies was surprisingly similar to the support provided renewable
generators i.e., wind,
solar and biofuels.
While the Clean Power Plan is a key driver of this increase in natural gas and renewable generation, EIA made significant downward revisions to both the projected cost of natural gas (as a
fuel) and the projected capital cost of natural gas, wind, and
solar generators in this year's edition of the AEO.

When I was with the utility in the 1980's, we got our power from an integrated system of hydro, wind, supercritical gas boilers, photovoltaic,
solar thermal, geothermal, pumped storage,
fuel cells, nuclear units, landfill gas, anaerobic digestion, and even the emergency
generators of the customers dispatched directly by the utility.

Oh, yes, I know you might be able to obtain power from a wind
generator or
solar panel — but the equipment in those «alernative
fuel sources» has to be manufactured.
«We believe our method provides researchers at JCAP and elsewhere with an important tool for developing integrated photocathode materials that can be used in future
solar -
fuel generators as well as other technologies capable of reducing net carbon dioxide emissions.»
«This could allow us, for example, to replace the precious metal catalysts currently used in many
solar -
fuel generator prototypes with catalysts made from earth - abundant elements.»
But then I went on to envisage, at least in my own mind, a time when large fossil
fuel generators had all closed own — mainly in order to avoid ruining our one and only habitable planet — and that the 24/7 power supply would be a mix of
