You have options… but at the end of the day, your going to be getting electricity from non-fossil fuel sources because of government regulations that are continuously shutting down and curtailing power plants. So, we, in Louisiana can self generate our own electricity through projects similar to these solar farms. Or we can pipe it in from Texas or Arkansas or Mississippi or other states that are well ahead of the curve on accepting and allowing these type projects to move forward. You can bet your arse the more resistance that Louisiana is to projects like this, the more it will cost to power our homes in the future.

Here’s the thing, I’m not opposed to solar panels.

I am VERY opposed to solar farms taking good crop lands out of rotation. We’ll provide our own “clean” energy while depending more and more on Mexico and other counties for our food. How stupid is that?

Better we use more reliable generation sources that we already have like oil, lignite, and natural gas.
