Disadvanteges:
A common disadvantage to all is that it is difficult to produce the large quantities of electricity their counterpart the fossil fuels are able to. Since they are also new technologies, the cost of initiating them is high.
• wind: turbines are expensive. Wind doesn't blow all the time, so they have to be part of a larger plan.
• solar: panels are expensive. Governments are not all willing to buy home generated electricity. Not all climates are suitable for solar panels.
• waves: different technologies are being tried around the world. Scientists are still waiting for the killer product.
• tides: barrages (dams) across river mouths are expensive to build and disrupt shipping. Smaller turbines are cheaper and easier to instal.
