I especially like to see much more investments and development of ways to harnish free and abundant solar and wind energy, for example, thus making it more readily and feasible for industries and the masses, too.Without clear objectives, progressive governmental energy policy in place, and "forward thinking," our energy future will be dim and life as we know it today may cease to exist in a not too distant future.

Cornell Thu, 21 Jul 2011 02:46:49 +0000 http://www.globalwarming.org/?p=10053#comment-61304 Sir: You say that NGCCs ran at 42% of capacity in 2009. They can run at 85%... You also say that marginal cost keeps them at a lower number, (although that is changing).... That HAS changed, and we're swimming in "excess" capacity to produce natgas... One company in Texas is actually converting its import terminal to export. So we can continue to see $4 natgas....for a long time to come. How does that compare to coal? Which is streched to get enough to China and India....at profitable prices. Those natgas NGCCs capfacts are going up and then up again. (And so will the less-efficient natgas burners...) Sincerely...Vern Cornell Sir:

They can run at 85%…

number, (although that is changing)….
That HAS changed, and we’re swimming in “excess” capacity
to produce natgas… One company in Texas is actually
converting its import terminal to export.
So we can continue to see $4 natgas….for a long time to come.
How does that compare to coal? Which is streched to get enough
to China and India….at profitable prices.
Those natgas NGCCs capfacts are going up and then up again.
