Title: Solar Plant Wants to Burn More Natural Gas
Post by: J P Sousa on November 07, 2014, 11:02:52 AM
Because the sun doesn't shine enough. Needs permission to emit more carbon dioxide.

So none of the "smart" people involved in the design and construction of this solar facility was aware that there are approximately 12 hours a day when the sun is not present in the local sky?

Not only that, they apparently didn't bother to see what the past weather patterns have been before they built their plant.
