A couple of weeks ago, Sweden’s government ditched plans to go all-in on “green energy,” green-lighting the construction of new nuclear power plants. Shortly afterward, fossil fuel giant Shell announced it was scaling back its energy transition plans to focus on…gas and oil!(Snip)Rhode Island’s leading utility decided to nix a project called Revolution Wind 2 because the cost of the electricity was deemed too high.(Snip)In Europe, Swedish energy firm Vattenfall will stop the development of a major wind project in the United Kingdom after a surge in costs.
In addition to economic factors, concern about whale strandings and deaths is being raised although scientists claim so far there is no evidence for a connection with wind farms. There is, however, scientific evidence that one traditional energy source, coal power plants, have a power and reliability that makes wind power pale in comparison.
