The initial capitalization of the plant isn’t the only cost there, though.

There’s also the fuel, which for this sun plant is zero.

It might or might not add up to a stunning bargain, but to dismiss it based on a one dimensional analysis is not thinking.

Nope. There's O&M which for this plant is huge. Fuel for conventional plants costs money, but other O&M costs are much lower.
