Natural Gas Ranks Best In New Energy Scorecards—Wind And Solar Hit Rock Bottom
Two independent analyses find wind and solar cost more, deliver less, and do far more ecological harm.

Policymakers on both sides of the political aisle increasingly advocate for affordable, reliable, and clean energy. This is for good reason – modern society requires energy that is affordable and available on demand. [emphasis, links added]
Environmental concerns are also very important. Together, affordability, reliability, and cleanliness form the three pillars of an ideal energy policy.
Two new analyses evaluate competing electrical power sources and produce an affordable, reliable, and clean scorecard.
The two analyses – one published by Northwood University and the Mackinac Center, and the other published by my public policy organization, The Heartland Institute– independently reach near-identical findings.
