← Back to context Comment by pfdietz 5 hours ago RE grid doesn't have a "bad EROI". The EROI of renewables is quite acceptable. 2 comments pfdietz Reply looofooo0 3 hours ago Not if you factor in all the residual. Adding to fossil or water based grid is okay, running on its own with all the necessary residual it gets way worse. pfdietz 2 hours ago Yes, even if you factor in "all the residual".EROI cannot be bad, since energy is only a small part of the cost of manufacturing. If EROI was unacceptable, then overall cost would be too.
