Once a couple of homosexuals climb up on this thing and get scorched to death, they’ll close the joint down.
What happens when the “green jobs of the future” get translated from the liberal fantasy of frolicking unicorns in golden fountains to cold hard reality.
Earth Stewards From HeLL!!
Lies , deceptions, carcasses, more hooey than you can shake a hockey stick at ala Michael Mann.
Mindless robots supporting the death and destruction of God’s creatures, all for their personal agenda advancements.
In another article they state that to build it cost 2.2 billion dollars and that they were excited to say it covered over 140,000 customers.
Well, I’m excited to say that cost each customer over 1,571,428 each to have their “green” power. That’s not counting yearly maintenance and overhead of the power plant.
Add that to the bill too each month. WHAT A SAVINGS? /SARC
In The Silent Spring, you can hear the whirr of windmills.
Mirrors in the desert? What are deserts know for having lots of? Heat and dust.
For those mirrors to be efficient they will have to be washed frequently; most likely at least weekly. They will also have to be washed carefully because scratches will cause a loss of reflective efficiency.
What do you wash mirrors with to remove lots of gritty dust? Typically soap and water.
What are deserts known for having little of? Water.
Speaking of water; this solar plant is a boiler steam plant that boils water to make steam to turn a turbine, that means it takes water to make this power plant work. Water is scarce in deserts, that means expensive.
Steam plants also have to deal with waste heat. That usually requires one of two things; either a large body of water to dump warm water in to (which I don’t think you will find in a desert) or evaporative heat exchangers that use cooling towers to dump the waste heat in to the atmosphere.
So on the whole this power plant makes no sense to me at all because it seems to me to be designed not to produce electric power at a profit but to waste money on a gigantic scale.
