Well, there's always the fact that (at least a year or two ago) they could take more energy to produce than they'd recover over their lifespan. The ones most commonly used for power generation take 8 years to recover the invested energy, and overall just aren't cost effective. But practicality, unfortunately, isn't allowed in the energy debate.I haven't heard anything about solar, but I'm sure someone will find something to b!tch about.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Economics will drive the switch to cleaner power. Technology will drive down the prices there as the cost of oil keeps going up.
