In our area, they used viable farmland for these solar farms. One big fat stupid move.

How many of the laid off oil field and pipeline workers will be making these solar panels as promised by John Kerry???

Solar is such a scam. They are allowed to assume 100% efficiency with 24 hour a day sunlight for their calculations... And subsidies.

Or rather the, "Watch us invest YOUR money where WE want to (with a little cut for US and our "friends", of course)."

“what the hell is “community” solar power?”

That’s when they bulldoze YOUR community and install a solar panel farm.

Watta deal

I bet the Natives on the North Slope can't wait for their solar grants...for when the sun comes up again.

Solar in AK - such a good deal.

That’s 380,000,000 square feet of solar panel space. That’s 9,000 acres of panels. Imagine a city of 2 million homes.
