Attempting To View Renewable Energy Intelligently
It’s the birthday of F. Scott Fitzgerald, whose affinity for the leisure class served as the driving force behind many of the classics he produced in the early 20th Century. Somewhere along the way, Fitzgerald wrote something that I’ve always treasured: “The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function.”

Production of energy is one of the most crucial challenges facing many countries across the world. Energy production method varies from one point to another but what makes it expensive is the cost of production. Bio gas is one of the most efficient gases that have gained worldwide recognition because of energy production. 
It’s always good to see credible people debunking the myth that renewable energy is expensive. Though there are many possible dimensions to this discussion, Colorado ex-governor Bill Ritter takes the most obvious tack possible in his Wall Street Journal blog, i.e., explaining that, depending on various conditions,

It looks like this transition to electric transportation is taking root in the U.S. 
We’ve been told by government and industry that the US has 100 years’ worth of natural gas in the ground accessible through unconventional means, including fracking. This is what will provide growth in the manufacturing sector, create jobs, lower gas prices, and allow the US to become a world energy leader.
