The Wind Isn't Always Favorable for Renewable Power

DONG Energy also has stepped in to snap up the rights to Centrica's abandoned Race Bank project for 50 million pounds ($82 million).

Looks like DONG Energy is on the rise.

You know, I used to thoroughly enjoy this place, it was a fitting place for an engineer to be. It was technical and largely non-political.

Now, I almost hate coming here because you smear everything with your irrational hatred of our democratically elected president. Your comments are not technical in nature, they are often not factual because you quote freely from right wing spin sites. I had high hopes of the break room but gave up on it because of your crap, but now you are bringing it here.

Please, if you can't stop, keep it in the break room, leave us something that resembles a place for science and engineering.

It was a joke about DONG energy.

Keyword "DONG". Get it yet?

How you've managed to twist that into a political statement about the US president, is completely beyond me.

I really don't want to know.

You obviously didn't bother reading the link, and are just out bashing.

passingtongreen is right.

Okay. I'm missing it. Here's my entire post #1, that passington responded to.

The first line is a quote from the link.

Please explain how any of that is either political, or about the president. It wasn't my intention, and I still fail to see any connection.

I can't speak for passingtongreen.

You will have to admit that the thread turned political with your #3 and then Fred's #4, both responses to my, I think innocent, purposely apolitical remark about business ventures.

Anyone that thinks these "green" energy schemes aren't politically motivated, (and financed), is hopelessly naive.

I still don't understand the association between DONG and the president.

Another quote from the link:

Centrica and Scottish Power's decisions also came a week after the government announced new subsidy prices under a renewable energy support scheme from 2018.

Do I really need to track this back to, "less taxpayer money"?

These projects only look good, if they are being financed with Other People's Money.

Sorry if that cold hard fact hurts your guy's feelings.

I should have made the response to your #3, even that is not direct but you have used Solyndra in your anti-Obama writings so often that it carries baggage; you write "Solyndra" and we see paragraphs from many previous posts.

At least they weren't built yet.

What boggles the mind is how can anyone propose something that is a loser even before it is started.

Why?

In the US, losers are not only proposed, but started.

Think Solyndra...and a bunch of other green energy companies.

They scoop up millions of, (taxpayer), dollars, then go out of business.

Nice gig if you can get into it.

...and the problems are

1. rock seabed

2. rough waves

3. endangered basking sharks!!!!
