I have a comment on the utility scale saturation - it would be nice to see it slow up, but I feel that will not happen anytime soon here in Texas. Prime farmland is being taken up at an astonishing rate. The best l;and is in the triangle between Dallas, San Antonio and Austin, blackland prairie, and then down to the coast, between Houston and Corpus. It is being covered with solar. See the recent hail storm damage. Having dealt with solar developers, their attorneys and land owners - I think greed from both sides will win the day and the actual use of the land will take second fiddle! Our politicians don't seem to care, maybe some are starting to pay attention, with many people like myself complaining! And of course food comes from the grocery store!
The other thing that bothers me is the tax credit situation and those transfers. I believe that those regulations have been ironed out and if so, then there will be a boom in the industry as those transfer fuel the fire!
I would like to be more optimistic, but I don't see them backing off any time soon. ERCOT's dire predictions don't help and all they can give is is more wind and solar and a flood of worthless, expensive batteries.
Hold onto our wallets, it's going to be a rough ride!
Thanks JF for the comment and info on Texas. Yes, I think the subsidies, tax credits, and transfers tend to bring out greed, regardless of who gets hurt, and of course it's the working poor who get hurt the most. I think I read somewhere that 40% of workers live paycheck to paycheck.

Believe = religion

Here is what I know.
What do you know that’s different?
GHE theory fails because of these two erroneous assumptions:
Earth is warmed by GHE/GHGs preventing it from becoming a 33 C cooler, 255 K, -18 C ball of ice.
Wrong.
&
Earth’s surface radiates “extra” LWIR energy as a black body creating an upwelling, looping, trapping warming effect.
Wrong.
Earth is cooler w the atmos/WV/30% albedo not warmer.

Ubiquitous GHE heat balance graphics use bad math and badder physics.
YouTube: Atmospheric Heat Balances That Don't (terminated)
Kinetic heat transfer modes of contiguous atmos molecules render a BB surface model impossible.

Consensus science has a well-documented history of being way wrong and abusing those who dared to challenge it (Bruno drawn & quartered) & the current consensus is wrong about GHE & CAGW.
GHE theory & CAGW climate “science” are indefensible pseudo-science rubbish forcing alarmists to resort to fear mongering, lies, lawsuits, censorship and violence.
Love your article - thanks for the share.
