re: Renewable Energy Pros and Cons

we’ve tried wind turbines. Unless you spend big big dollars they almost immediately break down in the slightest harsh environment. There’s a guy near us that has a $20K wind setup and it is sweet. Still, though you need a battery bank and it requires constant maintenance

we have three 6’ panels on the roof facing south and they’ve been up there in the sun/rain/wind/salt spray for 10 years, no maintenance. I use industrial lead acid batteries that are cumbersome, expensive and a pain in the arse to deal with. But, that’s the only thing that’s reliable due to the need for deep cycle storage. You show me a lighter, more durable and more efficient storage system and it would change everything

shite I’d go solar on my house if/when that happens.
that will be the breakthrough that changes everything
