Reply #6: Wow!!!!!!! Fabulous!!!!!! Does this mean that Statoil is going to shut its gas wells? [View All]

Lots and lots and lots of "coulds" in that post, which must mean that it does not produce significant energy.

I will say this: It beats the hell out of the Utsira wind project that was supposed to power millions of hydrogen HYPErcars, and it definitely beats the scam that Statoil ran when it kept promising to build the Sleipner sequestration fields, at least for as long as the Norwegian natural gas plants were approved and on line.

It will of course operate until it blows over, or is wiped out in a storm, whereupon stupid dumb fundie anti-nukes will not care less.

I note that the article is at least as stupid as most stupid anti-nuke fundies are, inasmuch as it stupidly asserts what the peak power is and is clueless about energy.

Maybe the stupid are embarrassed (after 7 years of hyping the renewable energy industry during its failure to make even a slight dent in the rate of increase of dangerous fossil fuel waste in Earth's atmosphere) by quoting the stupid confusion between power and energy.

The article of course, does mention this point:



Let's be generous and forget the low capacity utilization this piece of sea junk will actually involve and pretend like a stupid fundie anti-nuke that it operates at the max, 2.3 MW continuously. It follows that it would take 434 of these babies to replace just one of the nuclear plants that the dumb fundie anti-nukes want to shut because they can't think, can't do science, and can't violate their own fundie dogma.

It follows, and you're excused if your a dumb fundie anti-nuke and can't do math, that replacing one nuclear plant with this unreliable short lived junk would cost $29,000,000,000,000. By coincidence, 29 billion is very close to the number of tons of dangerous fossil fuel waste dumped into the planet's atmosphere each year while whiny uneducated cretins keep saying "could!!!!!" Could!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" "Could!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!."

The fundies are always classic in what they ignore. Imagine though that there was a nuclear plant somewhere that required to produce, at peak, 1000 MWe and it cost $29 billion bucks to build!

The number of the same dumb fundies who actually see what is, is predictably zero.

Have a nice and pleasant bourgeois oblivious evening.
