Wrong again Lamar.
You stated:
"Still going on protecting your precious grid power ARD ?
You better do some real investigating and research as over 80% of US power comes
from dirty coal generators"
So you said "US POWER", not ELECTRICAL power.
But it hardly matters since you were wrong in either case.
Only 50% of our Electrical power comes from coal.
Only 23% of our total power comes from coal.

Oh, and there is no movement off the grid.
The VAST majority of new homes are grid connected.
