There’s No Law That Says You Can’t Do It, But Why?

This is the advice I give people who want to build energy generation systems centered around technologies that are, at this point, totally impractical. You can do it, but why?
I still see business plans for hydrokinetics, biomass, small wind, microbial fuel cells, solar thermal, or any of a dozen other concepts. Many of these made sense 15 years ago, before the plummeting price of solar PV and wind, but by now, the winners have won and the losers have lost.

The basic content of the meme here is true, and I’m sure it’s a sentiment most of us share. But when we think about it for a moment, it’s clear that this is not “either/or.” The first two of the equations here are taught to fewer than 1/1000 college students and exactly zero high school students. Music can and should be taught to 100%. We can accommodate both.
