Let's face it, the energy density of solar and wind power is too low to be economically feasible.
You need huge farms to capture the energy and they do NOT work 24/7.
We do not have any really good way of storing energy to make up for the intermittent supply.
Are there ANY wind or solar farms in the US today that make money?

Let's face it, the energy density of solar and wind power is too low to be economically feasible.

That's it in the proverbial nutshell.

Our ignorant media gets all tangled up in the cost of solar panels and windmills, but if those were driven to zero, wind and solar power wouldn't make sense for mass generation.

The Gemasolar Thermosolar Plant in Spain has battery storage, but then again the unemployment rate in Spain is 26.8%, if that means anything. Every time someone comes up with the next generation of solar panels, the billions of dollars already wasted is rendered obsolete. If any solar farms are profitable, it's only because the government mandates power companies to buy their energy at inflated prices. If not for the government's manipulation and price-fixing, power companies would choose the least expensive, most efficient means.
