climate change solution
For supporters of climate change solutions…?
Would you pay to help install a renewable energy project like geothermal, solarthermal, tidal or other similar?
Also, please comment on baseload power, set up cost versus ongoing costs as much as you like:)
John – I said for supporters only, why don’t you get an education? *smiles sweetly*
1. Yes, you can pay for renewable energy through the grid from your electricity supplier. This has not yet, in Australia, facilitated the closure of a coal powered generator.
2. What I am suggesting is something like a once off charity drive to allow an electricity producer to build a new plant for the purpose of closing an old one down.
In particular, attention to baseload power generation, in order to DISPLACE coal and result in an actual reduction in emissions.
I already pay a voluntary extra fee with my utility provider so that my power comes from clean energy.
When I built my house 11 years ago, I looked into a geothermal heat pump. At the time, I wasn’t concerned about AGW and they were a fairly new technology. I ended up not doing it. If I built again, I’d definitely install one. Given todays interest rates and electricity rates, the amount of money saved on monthly utilities would more than cover the extra up front costs tacked onto a mortgage loan.
