A lot of energy....like the huge input you require in order to get a wind turbine to generate SFA.
Obviously the effort required to get a nuke to generate for nearly half a century is dismissed outright becuase it doesn't fit with their agenda of eternal darkness.
When I (briefly) worked for British Gas, a couple of the experts (who were rarely in the UK, as it was more effective to hire them out to other countries, such was their knowledge of high-pressure gas distribution) came back from the USSR (as 'twas) having met Russian scientists who spoke of a theory (which the USSR accepted as fact) that the Earths crust had a layer of methane deep below it.
With all this talk of shale gas, and the dominance of the European gas market by Russia, I often wonder if they were onto something.
IIRC they use aluminium for suspended power cables because it has a higher = conductivity per unit mass than copper does. But copper has higher conduc= tivity per unit volume.
the Today prog the other morning, and as I said at the time, he quoted a "study" to support his PoV. The next day's Times rubbished that "study", as it was partly funded by a pro-wind interest group, and the analysis suffered from "a number of schoolboy howlers", as The Temps put it.
