They might it get it sometime. You know the saying, if at first you don't succeed, try, try again.

I was always scared I would end up in quick sand when I was a kid. Actually found some in Utah when I was rafting the green river.They forgot quicksand, which we all thought would have figured into millions of deaths by the end of the 80's for sure
That’s friggen awesome!!!WOOHOOO!! Just read this article, again, written in a way to make it sounds like a bad thing but all I can do is celebrate!! The orange man bad strikes again and this time, he killed a stupid massive brandon solar project in Nevada that would have been the size of Las Vegas and in the middle of pristine desert.

The Trump administration just killed the US's largest solar project
The Trump administration has canceled Nevada’s massive Esmeralda 7 solar project, stalling US clean energy progress.electrek.co
I know there are peeps out there who don't like this guy on both side of the isle and for different reasons but shit like this... make me soooooo glad that I voted for him![]()
They just closed one why were they trying to open another?WOOHOOO!! Just read this article, again, written in a way to make it sounds like a bad thing but all I can do is celebrate!!

This one has been in the works for a while now. Brandon just made it happen before he left. It's also supposed to be more efficient that Ivanpah and over 10x the size.They just closed one why were they trying to open another?
Me too!!!This is what I voted for.
Not just compared to the Hoover Dam, 3x it's generating capacity. The amount of virgin desert it would have blanketed and destroyed would have literally have been the size of the city of Las Vegas! But hey, all in the name of saving the planet, right?185 square miles?! And they were comparing it to the Hoover dam? The Hoover dam doesn’t even compare in size, whoever wrote that has been kicked in the head by a mule a few times.
Yet the Hoover dam is only .03 square miles lol I guess if the are talking about Lake Mead, it’s comparable.Not just compared to the Hoover Dam, 3x its generating capacity. The amount of virgin desert it would have blanketed and destroyed would have literally have been the size of the city of Las Vegas! But hey, all in the name of saving the planet, right?
More efficient than zero. Only way to go is up.This one has been in the works for a while now. Brandon just made it happen before he left. It's also supposed to be more efficient that Ivanpah and over 10x the size.
Me too!!!
There was a small problem with Brandon's plan. The vast majority of solar cells are made in China. There is hardly any domestic manufacturing. The huge solar generating plant would depend on China. China also has a corner on the market for the raw materials required to make solar cells. This is not actually energy independence since it is so incredibly dependent!This one has been in the works for a while now. Brandon just made it happen before he left. It's also supposed to be more efficient that Ivanpah and over 10x the size.
Me too!!!
Hopefully SMRs do succeed. They seem to only solve one aspect of the nuclear "problem", which is about how to avoid the extreme weight of government regulations required for normal sized plants. We are only now bringing on line the first new nuclear plant built since the 1950s! Technical problems (mostly about fail-safe cooling and shutdown) have been solved for a long time.Solar is so stupid for so many reasons. SMRs are better in every way and truly the only realistic way to power us into the future.
I believe AI Dara centers will be the driving force for SMRs.Solar is so stupid for so many reasons. SMRs are better in every way and truly the only realistic way to power us into the future.
