9d ago Cuba has only gotten one tanker of oil since January. Cuba's iconic vintage cars have all but disappeared. In their place, small electric tricycles outfitted with solar panels, allowing them to rec… +2.5
9d ago Yes solar panels, but also double the cost of electricity that needs to be used by these data centers! Or provide all their own electric independently off the local power grid! -3.0
9d ago I am not talking about home generation but about the needs of the power grid 24/7/365. And if you have priced full solar for all household power you know how many years it takes to reach breakeven… -1.0

9d ago It's not what people assumed, it's what happens on the electricity grid most of the time. Wind produces a chunk of the electricity, gas also produces a chunk, and the spot price is high. (sometime… +0.0

10d ago Every EXISTING data center should be required to use solar panels - while figuring out even more ways to decrease the environmental and quality of life impacts. The rest should not be built or open… +3.0
10d ago Ontario govt could install soooo many solar panels to ease pressure on our electric grid, but decides to promote online gambling, cheap beer, and development overtop of greenbelt land instead. -4.0
10d ago As far as solar power, of course you can generate it on site, but you then have to store it in order for vehicles to be able to charge when the sun doesn't shine. You will need a massive PV system … -0.5
10d ago But if solar and wind can add to the power grid then why not promote renewable sources? +4.0
10d ago Every single time I see a data center, those big giant roofs, I wonder why they don't put solar panels there. I wonder why they are allowed to operate off the public's power grid. There is not a s… -6.0
