While I think your comment is over simplifying the issue, there is strangely little mention that people’s animosity toward Musk are responsible for the downturn. Tesla used to be almost the only premium EV available, now there are significant numbers of competitors.

I only see them on rooftops, car parks, farmland (where they have the benefit of adding shade.) etc.

I’m all for more deployment, but no need to shit on non-“floatovoltaics” - rad name btw
