Jones does not mention wind, which might be odd but the article was written in 2000 and wind has been growing rapidly the last few years.

PV has had a problem of getting EROEI greater then one, making it not unresonable that it was the case in 2000. Indeed I heard a lecture by a life-cycle analyst in 2002 (I think) were PV had EROEI smaller then one.

I must admit I have not seen resent calculations of the EROEI of PV. Do you happen to have any links?
