Storm Darragh Leaves UK’s Biggest Solar Farm in Pieces

Editor’s Note: Wind and solar industrial facilities are often proposed as the way to have our cake and eat it too on energy – to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from electric power generation while still maintaining a reliable supply of electricity. Whether such systems are actually result in decreased carbon dioxide emissions is open to debate when one considers the carbon footprint of mining, constructing, operating, and disposing of the waste from such systems. By contrast, they clearly aren’t as reliable as electric power plants fueled by coal, natural gas, and nuclear. Nor, are traditional power plants operations disrupted by a passing storm, as the guest post below details happened in the United Kingdom recently.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

How many times must the windstorms rage
Before the windfarms lay wrecked in the sand?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

(sorry, Bob...!)
