Do not bet on “green energy.”
Its a product low interest rates, massive government debt, and government mandates.
Maybe it will outlast the world’s longest tire fire.
“The Heyope tyre dump near Knighton, Powys, would appear to be the longest burning tyre fire in the world. Started in 1989 it continued to burn until at least 2004.
The tyre dump with an estimated total of 10 million tyres lay in a deep wooded valley in the Welsh borders. According to reports they tyres were packed too densely for firefighters to extinguish and there were no flames, but temperature readings confirm the intense heat generated below the surface.”
Like those coal-seam fires that dot the world.
I appreciate the info.
He’s right, it hasn’t been reported much.
But I wish he would learn to write.
“Like those coal-seam fires that dot the world.”
Yep. Centralia PA fire burning since 1962.
There's one in New South Wales, Australia, that's been burning (at least) 5500 years.

And of course the sun has been burning a bit longer than that.
“Reporters” these daze are public school C stoonts.
I get it, oil wells burning makes battery fires good
One fire dept if read about is prepared for burning Teslas. They have a giant dumpster, into which they will forklift the burning car and then backfill with sand until it’s full. Only sure way of extinguishing a large lithium battery fire.
How much in the way of greenhouse gases are being expelled into the atmosphere due to this fire?
“”Gateway Energy Storage Facility””
Once again, STORAGE. To call this place anything but a very large Duracell is ridiculous (and most Duracells do not cause fires).
Over and over the Drive-By Media call these places energy plants, as if the batteries magically charge themselves. Kalifornia likes to brag about all the wind and solar energy. If they need to charge these batteries at night, what are they going to do, order the Sun to rise early?

But they are providing free light and heat!
Coming to a county near you in Michigan. Rural counties away from water and manned by Volunteer Fire Departments. Thank Strechin’ Gretchen.
Well, that has nothing to do with batteries...
Is the company being fined for polluting...or are they excused from such because they are Green Woke?
