In all seriousness, solar makes more sense in the middle east. I'd still lean towards decentralized solar (not making the grid depend on it).

And I've read off and on that Israel has the ability to shut off parts of the grid in terrorist areas. So solar is attractive if you want to be prepared against that. Which, by the way, is similar to why I have solar. I have a healthy distrust of government, especially the Dims' war on energy.

Israel getting into their solar equipment during the transportation stage is impressive. At least for now, I'm assuming we're not talking about Israel hacking into their solar. Though I guess that's possible, but not probable. I would imagine the terrorists wanted their solar equipment to operate autonomously (read: not connected to the internet)

To: Tell It Right

I suppose it is possible to just hack the software. If solar is connected to batteries which are internet capable I presume it’s possible to run an overload. Even if not connected to the internet, a friendly technician or installer could rig it somehow.

There was the story, made a Netflix show about it, of an Egyptian Jewish Israeli who infiltrated the Syrian government. He generously donated Cyprus trees to help the Syrian soldiers stay in the shade. The IDF then knew exactly where to target.
