Solar is just a joke, expensive to build, takes up a lot of space, and output is laughable
Wind is impractical, is contingent on steady wind (not too little or too much), only works in certain areas, and is expensive to maintain
Hydro is good, but can only be built in limited areas
a nuclear reactor the size of a volkswagen can generate more power than a solar or wind farm the size of Rhode island; power capacity far outweighs build expense and operation

@wildbill83 Wind chops up birds. And barely generates enough to turn the fan on
