Green energy should only be used where it is cost effective to use. For instance, in MN, the Governor has this obsession with being 100% green by 2032, or something like that. Mn is mostly focusing on solar. Please tell me how a solar panel, that is covered in snow, and cant even produce enough power to tilt and follow the sun under its own energy, is going to power a cold climate like MN? But MN wants to be California, so they are trying their hardest to match with them. If solar was so effective, why isnt the power companies putting them up? Why is it always independent? It is for the tax brakes. If it was cost effective, the power companies would be putting them up themselves, rather then involving a middle man.
