It ends up so weird and confused because it’s a community of explicitly anti-community, anti-government people clumsily feigning membership on a finite physical planet

These people hear climate and energy keywords and are now just slapping it on their projects, in the hope that that’ll ward off criticism. Storage? Energy efficiency? Demand response? Yeah, that’s what this is! Why the hell not?

“The prospect of utility independence and wholesale rates make fossil fuels far more compelling than grid-restricted renewables”

Rising demand helps fossil fuels, and falling demand helps renewable energy

If zero emissions power is used, it’s a side-effect, not an effort to engage in climate action.

A student might modify an assignment, create their own, or refuse one that might be ethically questionable (and explain why).

It’s clear that we need to make the switch to clean, reliable sources of renewable energy like solar and wind. Unlike fossil fuels, renewables don’t add greenhouse gases to our atmosphere.

The local electricity linesmen, electricity inspectors, and other nodal officials in the electricity department also have key roles to play. Building their capacities to disseminate such information and handle consumer queries and concerns, and providing basic training in billing and metering for solar power can go a long way in improving consumers’ experience.

The port’s nascent concentration of expertise creates opportunity to provide cost effective through-life engineering and logistics support in Thanet.

LOPINOD is also being used to fund the development of a Low Carbon Plan. This plan will focus on the full spectrum of renewables including wind, solar, marine source heat pumps and tidal. It is hoped that we will become a hub for all green energy going forward, building on our existing involvement in the wind farm industry.
