And the solar power is stored in Yuge capacitors for when the Lazers have to fire.

Sounds like they’re planning a government/private corporation partnership that won’t need Congressional approval.

It’s really a brilliant idea!

But since it requires thinking beyond the meme level and watching a 4 minute video, I expect a string of asinine comments as always occurs with technology-rated topics on FR.

This design is why American Exceptionalism exists. No one is better at solving difficult problems.

Or at a minimum, the solars could power the batteries that power the "electric fence" so a climber would be shocked off the wall.

What happens when the Mexican Cartels shoot at the solar wall? How much does it cost to fix it?

People who who dont want a wall (The Solar Wall) are doing it because of their endless hated toward renewable energy.

If I remember correctly—can’t find the visuals that I saw last night off the top of my head—the solar panels would be on the American side only. There are also apparently ways to make the solar panels extremely durable if they manage to get a shot off on the American side.

Also, drones and turrets.
