The Economics of Renewable Energy

“Rather than spending the majority of our time — let alone the mind-numbing sums of taxpayers' money which make every sum mentioned in this report seem trivial — on propping up our ill-managed banks, we should rapidly launch some infrastructure projects that will secure the nation’s future. There are renewable energy projects of all sizes that would be appropriate, and future generations would thank us for pursuing them, rather than wondering with dismay how we stumbled into blackouts and failed to meet our goals for reducing carbon dioxide.”

Lord Broers, House of Lords motion to take note of the Report of the Economic Affairs Committee on The Economics of Renewable Energy
