A data-driven exploration of how we power our world, what separates the sustainable from the unsustainable, and how thoughtful energy choices can shape a more resilient and equitable future.
Does your analysis factor in the lack of variable or marginal cost of operating wind and solar? Especially for solar. Sunshine and wind are free, nothing is consumed, fossil fuels have the added cost of sourcing, transporting and burning the fuels.
There really is no “Clean Energy”! Even solar and wind have environmental consequences from manufacturing to deployment to disposal. Can the LCOE also include the front and backend costs each energy source to become a Holistic CoE? Or does it do so already?
