A good article I ran across this weekend from Renew Economy …. https://reneweconomy.com.au/us-energy-giant-says-renewables-and-batteries-beat-coal-gas-and-nukes-78962/amp/?__twitter_impression=true ….Cowboy
Cowboy, good article and I would think that Duke Energy would be not far behind in seconding. I disagree with Nextera Robo saying that renewables will only good for about 75% of the market do to battery size. The renewables market is still young and I recently read an article that said the ITC incentives should continue for R&D in the market. Batteries will continue to gain in capacity and life cycle, there are new technology batteries just coming to market and others in R&D not far behind.
I agree Griffin. There are announcements everyday about new solar farms big and small. These batteries will continue improve as time goes on. We were a little early to the party but I am patient, and believe these stocks will come around. I’ve been busy with work and haven’t had a chance to add much here lately. I read all you posts, so thanks for that. Sometimes I think its just you and me here ! …Cowboy
