So you are disagreeing with Lazard, the investment advisory company you yourself referenced in your first reply?
An investment advisory company, Lazard, produces periodic analyses of the cost of various forms of energy. Lazard uses the measure levelized cost of energy(LCOE) to compare the cost of fossil fuel electricity with solar or wind electricity. Nearly every apologist for wind or solar uses LCOE.

LCOE estimates the cost of electricity from a new generating plant to have two major components:

  1. the amortization of the construction cost assigned to each megawatt-hour of electricity produced and
  2. the ongoing expenses, such as the cost of fuel and maintenance.
So make up your mind. Is Lazard correct or not?

Sure, places with plenty of sunshine (Australia) will do fine with solar. Sadly this isn't even remotely true for most of the continental United States.
