One of the more difficult to understand aspects of green energy technology is why it is more expensive to use than fossil fuels to produce the same electrical product. If coal and oil costs money to purchase or mine in order to burn to generate electricity, then why would using a free source of fuel to produce the same product cost more? The actual turning of the turbines that generate the electricity is the same in both processes, so if one uses a fuel that costs money and the other does not, why does the one with the free fuel ultimately cost more to consumers? The other logical question is if these costs can be reduced in order to create an energy source that is both cheaper and cleaner?

Coal and oil both cost money to mine and purchase, so the energy companies that rely on these fuel sources to produce electricity have a fixed cost in their plan that involves purchase at the market rate. As prices for coal or oil go up due to dwindling supplies, consumers can expect their power prices to rise as well. In addition, there is little that can be done to prevent the by-products of pollution when these fuels are burned, ultimately having a damaging effect on the planet. Nobody denies that a cleaner source of power would be superior, but few are willing to pay more for that cleaner power. If the costs associated with green energy production could be reduced to a point of being lower than fossil fuels, then the choice is obvious.

The main costs associated with green energy technologies is damage to components in the field as a result of lightning strikes and power surges. The complexes themselves are prime targets for lightning strikes as they are generally remote and have the tallest structures in a vicinity. The strikes themselves are almost impossible to avoid, but the surge related damage that follows is an even greater source of cost. The strike produces a large power surge which couples into data transfer and power lines that join components together and allow them to communicate. As a result, these systems are overwhelmed by the power surge, and have all components in the chain damaged by the surge that happens as a result of the strike. Cut down the amount of travel that these surges can achieve, and you reduce the damage that ultimately costs consumers so much money. This is achieved through the integration of robust surge protection devices, as well as the potential use of the most advanced ones that will require no resetting or relogging in order to remain functional. These technological advancements solve two problems, helping to avoid surge damage and at the same time reducing downtime that reduces efficiency during production times when the sun is shining or the wind is blowing. As surge protection evolves to being more and more efficient, the costs associated with green power production are reduced. We are on the threshold of the day when costs drop below fossil fuels, and when that day comes the debate between the methods effectively ends.
