Is it me or do renewable energy companies seem to consistently be money losers?

Hello,
Liquidator here. Green energy companies account for 90% of my business.
They live on government subsidies. The second the subsidies stop, or slow down, the company is dead.
"green" energy is a meme

Yeah, it's really hard to compete on EROEI terms with fossil fuels. Everything else is really just an energy sink and a bit of Jevons paradox.
Green energy is a deceptive misnomer, synthetic energy is more apt. I would guess with all the manufacturing and processing thrown in, it could even be called black hole energy. It has very particular niche applications.
It's shit practically
the only reason it's even a thing is because the federal jew makes money off of it too

EROEI isn't the end-all of energy, senpai. If it were, hydro would be much, much, MUCH more prevalent in the world than it is. That said, it's hard to beat oil in form-of-energy, too.
