“not the solution” - I’m so sick of that phrase. Not the solution to what problem exactly? If you want to lower emissions, it’s a perfect solution among many others, for many people. Now if you’re going after another problem instead, say it.
Agreed - it doesn’t have to supply 100% to be useful. It would be a great low-emissions adjunct to the hydro system and a way to hedge the risk of droughts impacting current supply
Of course it would be! ! It actually IS! Plenty of people are using solar! 20% of Australia’s electricity! So in Australia, it’s actively, currently, really, reducing fossil fuel consumption by at least 20%! It IS being used as a solution to emissions. The only reason it isn’t 100% is because we aren’t there yet. There is no barrier but naysayers!
