What an eyesore. Will all need scrapped in 25 years too.

Ok to have power but no good if there’s no farm land left to grow food on

What a disgrace

Fuse Energy1 year ago

Disgrace? Mate we’re literally turning garbage dump into power. What have you done today?

WINK Panther1 year ago

Hideous. Brownfield sites like landfill do make more sense than farmland, but there is still far better places to put solar..... Like over the carparks, railways and motorways.

What an appalling sight and a terrible decision to create that eyesore.

Looked it up was quarry until 1983, then turned into a LANDFILL from 1994 to 2002. In 2014 it was decided a solar farm on top so land to allow it to regenerate. It was completed in December 2022 and has been producing clean, green electricity ever since!" Sounds good to me 👍🙂

Once green fields now covered in glass will always be a failure!

Ghana still holds the largest floating solar power plant in Africa, generating 5.25 megawatts on the Aburi Reservoir. Ghana’s floating solar project is a work in progress and is expected to expand to approximately 65 megawatts, with plans to further increase capacity to 250 megawatts by 2030.

Meta is planning to power its AI data centers with solar energy beamed from space. If it works, solar farms could produce power 24/7 without batteries or backup generators. The company behind it all is Overview Energy -- they want to launch 1,000 satellites into orbit, 22,000 miles above the equator, where sunlight is constant. For context, Meta's data centers used over 18,000 gigawatt-hours of electricity last year. Enough to power 1.7 million American homes for a year. Each satellite collects solar energy, converts it into a wide beam of near-infrared light, and aims it at existing solar farms on the ground. The farms convert the light into electricity, just like they do with sunlight. Unlike high-power lasers or microwave beams, this infrared light is safe enough to stare directly into. Solar farms normally sit idle at night, so this system fixes that... from space. Really fascinating tech.

SpaceX is 10xing solar power in orbit every few years Here’s the progression for Starlink: • Gen 1 Starlink: ~3,000 satellites generating ~10 MW in orbit • Gen 2 Starlink: ~7,000 satellites generating ~100 MW • Gen 3 Starlink: expected to reach ~1,000 MW - 1 gigawatt of solar power in orbit Starlink was already revolutionary for global internet But the bigger story is that every new generation is also expanding SpaceX’s orbital power infrastructure • More satellites • More bandwidth • More solar power • More capability in orbit This matters because the future is not just satellites for internet It is satellites for communications, sensing, space data networks, and eventually orbital AI compute powered directly by solar SpaceX is not just building Starlink It is building the power and communications backbone for the next era of infrastructure in space

ELON MUSK: "China's growth in electricity is tremendous. Solar is the biggest thing in China. I believe China's production capacity on solar is 1500 gigawatts a year, and they're deploying over 1000 gigawatts a year of solar. US power usage on average is 500 gigawatts. China, just in solar can provide steady state power, and batteries can do half of the US electricity output per year just with solar."

🇺🇸41% of the U.S. has zero people living in it. Solar could theoretically power the entire country 100,000 times over with a tiny speck of that land. Elon has even said land is really not a constraint. The argument that solar takes up too much space doesn't survive basic geography. sourcery, Elon Musk

#SCOOP : Learnt that Indian Armed Forces used Solar Industries' Nagastra in a drone strike on Pakistan. The most interesting part is the 'capacity' of Solar Industries to mass-produce them at a rate that itself becomes a deterrent.

ELON: CHINA CAN MAKE ENOUGH SOLAR PANELS TO POWER THE U.S. IN 18 MONTHS “China has the ability to produce solar panels with a steady-state output roughly two-thirds that of the entire U.S. economy from all sources. Which means that just with solar alone, China can, in 18 months, produce enough solar panels to power all the electricity of the United States.” Source: The All-In Podcast

The UK is pushing solar power despite having some of the lowest sunlight levels in the world. Northern Britain receives less sunshine than Canada. According to a World Bank solar resource assessment, the UK ranks among the least suitable countries for solar generation, second only to Ireland in Europe. Low sunlight means low output and greater reliance on backup power. Moreover, the UK government has approved solar geoengineering research - experiments designed to dim incoming sunlight. So the policy is this: build solar in a low sunlight country, while exploring ways to block the sun.

E51MWA - Breaking News - On cloudy days solar panels don't charge batteries fully. Yesterday was cloudy as is today. At 5:20 in the morning local time the power went out. Technician came to start backup generator and went home. At some point the generator and building caught fire and is still burning now. Going forward we can only operate as long as solar batteries can provide power to island.

Elon Musk predicts that more than 90% of Earth's power will eventually come from solar with batteries "Satellites are just solar panels and a battery. That’s how all satellites work. With the Starlink satellite network, there’s 7,000 (now ~10K) satellites orbiting the Earth, and all they use is solar panels and a battery My prediction is, long-term, a majority of power on Earth - in fact, eventually it might be like 90% or more- will be solar panels with batteries That's my prediction. My predictions have a pretty good track record" Starlink already proves it works at massive scale in space

The first Haven-1 solar wing has completed its qualification campaign, culminating in a deployment test performed at Vast in Long Beach with support from our partner, DHV Technology. The wing's six deployable solar panels produce 1.2kW of power in standard orbit conditions. With Haven-1 set to fly twelve wings, a total of 14.4kW is available to power avionics, payloads, and everything in between.
