The disasters are the result of what I call "The seven dirty secrets of solar." Germany has led the way down this dark path, with a failed 32-year, quarter-of-a-trillion-dollar experiment, funded by taxpayers, which has left the country ranking among the worst polluters and highest electric bills in Europe, now also burning more brown coal for its grid than ever before, at 40% and climbing, with only 9% contributed by solar.
Black Gardens: The Seven Dirty Secrets of Solar "Farms" Secret number one: The sun is a lazy worker.
Secret number two: Solar energy never replaces fossil fuels; it sits on top of them.
Behind every solar "Farm" sits a silent, poisonous partner: an old-fashioned gas and oil electric factory.
Why talk about negatives? Secret number three: Old-fashioned gas and oil factories support solar because of the built-in backend revenue streams guaranteed to them.
Just follow the money Secret number four: Solar, for the previous reasons, is thus a de facto permanent polluter of the atmosphere.
The governments of Germany and the E.U. should put a halt to their failed solar projects and, like France and Sweden, start prototyping small-scale nuclear projects for future build-out, in order to provide their countries with genuine clean green energy.
