Biomass is in big use in Germany, but is hardly ever mentioned. Perhaps something for a future post.

I guess you could look at the ratio of the number of installations : the rate of the tariff, and you’d find that it has now fallen, although that definitely seems to be simplifying the issue. For example, we’re now spending much more on marketing so solar companies are having to push people a lot more to make them want solar – a lot of the damage is incurred by the industry.

Solar technology shows that renewable energy can replace fossil to a certain percentage. Other RE technology could play also partly such as biomass to biogas and electricity. The best part of the biomass is the cooperation and coordination of the european countries with tropical countries where the energy crops for biomass are plenty. Such a cooperation is a win-win situation, which has to be supported by every european while creating working place in the tropical countries and allowing the industry nations in europe to cut off the dependancy from natural gas of russia and oil from middle east.

Fab article! I wonder what the precise extra cost incurred is due to the instability – is there a way to work it out?
