I still remember the idiot back about 1978 that proposed putting a bug fan at one end of a tunnel and the wind turbine at the other end.

And had a terrible time explaining the laws of physics and why fulltime generators driven by the motion of a car’s wheels going down the road is not a net positive.

Liberals truly believe in fairy tales.

Oh, but with enough gov’t subsidies, those type of ideas work.

For example, some country in europe was subsidizing solar power to the point that it made economic sense for a company to power powerful floodlights with diesel generators to shine on photovoltaic arrays at night.
