Or worse, modules around the one tower. The idea of one 8000 m2 PV disk
tracking the daily sun is pretty daunting. But if you break it up into
several smaller modules, say 100 of 80m2 each, then when the sun isn't
directly overhead, the modules closest to the sun are casting shadows on the
ones directly behind them. Space them out far enough that you can get full
sun on all of them for about six hours a day and you just about double the
distance between them. Any more than that and simple trigonometry expands
the spacing needed very quickly.
Yep, it's a pretty big 'oops'.
There's no such "oops", other than we see that you're still trying to
create that new and improved black hole of denial and naysayism vortex
again, arnt you.
Why don't we just plug everything that needs energy into your
infomercial spewing butt of soot that runs on coal, h2o and
extensively N2. Of course we should also come to think, that within
much negative derived energy that's so sooty and badly CO2 and NOx
polluted (not to mention responsible for those massive conversions of
fresh water into acidic vapor by consuming nearly as much tonnage in
fresh water in order to keep those soot and nasty NOx contributions
down to a dull roar), might actually blow or otherwise suck out the
entire grid.
You and others of your all-knowing kind that never have to
constructively contribute or much less take into account the all-
inclusive birth to grave energy cycle, must have entirely missed out
on your final masters degree in physics duh-101, therefore independent
thinking or that of a deductive thought isn't allowed, much less
shared.
Our public utility energy grids that are in rather sad shape, as well
as mostly pumped via coal is also representing our nations biggest
consumer of fresh water, that when the likes of CO2 and NOx is
contributed becomes acidic and otherwise directly toxic to most life
as we know it, not to mention having puked a dozen other contributing
negative factors as also having placed that much greater tonnage of
fresh h2o as vapor directly into our global plus moon warmed
environment that has more than it's fair share of atmospheric moisture
to deal with as is, thereby dragging Earth's albedo down while having
increased nature's storm sucker punch my yet another measurable
factor. At the rate we're going, within the next century Greenland
well actually start becoming noticeably green as viewed from space, as
well as physically elevated because of all that teratonnage worth of
ice removed.
To hear you folks spew those mainstream status quo or bust rants, we
should not only stay the polluted course but greatly increase our
fossil fuel consumptions at all possible cost and rates of converting
such into as much soot and nasty environmental contributions as we can
muster, and call it good even if yellowcake is our only secondary best
alternative of traumatising whatever's left of our badly failing
environment, that has gotten most of everything more spendy than we
can afford to use or much less fix. Mean while, we have your born-
again resident LLPOF warlord(GW Bush) that's taking us into WWIII.
Gee whiz, does life in your fossil and yellowcake fast lane get any
better?
