  1.  @rattusfinkus  So you accept that they can be produced in time then? Renewables sound cheap, but their capacity factors are low and they require either backup or storage - which is rarely included in cost. Then they have to be replaced regularly. They are not as "cheap" as people make out.

  3. ​ @rattusfinkus  Wrong. They underestimate the cost of the backup needed to support renewables.
