One of the problems I have with renewables is that it requires a vast amount of fossil fuels to produce and maintain them. Then there is the sporadic nature of renewables. Cloudy days and dark at night. Windless days. Drought. Not to mention storage technology still not up to speed.
Most of the discussion about the above is all happy talk. The reality is that we are decades away from viable alternative to fossils.
