visualops says:   "It's interesting you ignored the case studies..."

Every case study I've ever read fell into one of two categories. Either they failed to present sufficient information to be able to make a rational analysis of the cost effectiveness or the else the information demonstrated clearly that the installation was not cost effective. The physics and economics have demonstrated repeatedly that solar power is simply not cost competitive with conventional power plants.

You must not have read any of the case studies at the site I linked (which came from your post), and that's not even a recently updated site.
From a business standpoint, solar power devices will simply not keep being installed if they haven't proven cost effective. The market has proven they do have a place as a supplemental or alternative power source.
Reality is flying in the face of your statements, yet you choose to keep plodding along with your mindset.
