Against the tide ...

To my mind, the most convincing "competitive" analyses for policy change have been sponsored by NREL and the DOE. Though often against the growing tide of $ from the Market to politicians & policymakers, their tools and studies consistently show the clear strategic environmental and financial benefit (for investors, developers AND the lungs of the 99%!) of choosing EGS for base-load electricity generation. http://www.nrel.gov/analysis/lcoe_documentation.html

Some of their $tudieS, though, consistently focus on the benefits of slowly dragging out the transition (coal > oil > gas > nuclear > solar > wind) for the 1% and commodities profiteers.
