What does it take to make Renewable Energy Economically viable?
Tuesday, March 4th, 2008viablerenewables asked:
Workable energy resource requirements, Independent of being Renewable:
1)Energy available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year.
2)At retail level directly compete with energy resources for today’s activity - if not, sellable spin-off benefits to subsidize the cost.
3)Transportable
4)Technology available.
5)No more environmentally harmful than competing energy resources.
6)Supplies close enough to consumer that distribution losses due to capacity doesn’t become an issue.
7)Politicians that back any solution be able to explain it to their constituents.
The area below the question wasn’t answering the question, but the breath of the question.

I’ve heard you are brilliantly creative. Economically there is at least 1 item more disastrous than investing in renewable energy infrastructure, not having a replacement for fossil fuel. I don’t wish to taint your creativity with my solution. The governments have tryed thinking small with little addition to supply. I’ve gone the opposite route to change the economics of Renewable Energy.
Please be as creative as the person was that during WW II came up with running the exhaust through aircraft feul tanks to mitigate possibily of explosition when shot.
