Some analysts (tips the cap to afew) even go so far as "wondering" if there aren't positive, ahem, National Security Implications, to the further development of renewable energies.

Nuclear is only scaleable in very large steps, hydro the same, gas also (I presume the burning/generating plants are hard to add capacity to?). However, wavepower is probably incrementally scaleable.
I have not seen this argument before, but it seems to be a reasonable one. Or I may be way off the technology: perhaps offshore wind farms are limited by geology? Perhaps preparing the site infrastructure for future increments is too expensive?
