@Quadhammer So far that hasn't proven to be the case. Any nation that has wide spread application of renewable energy also has very high rates. Take Spain for example, approximately 50% of it's energy comes from renewables is 19.9cents / Kwh. Saudi Arabia by contrast, less than 1% of it's energy from renewables, 6.1cents / Kwh, less than one third the cost in Spain AND their grid doesn't collapse on a regular basis when clouds obscure a solar farm or the wind dies down.
