But not for long. And they still cost considerably more.

Wasim Muklashy only in the dreams of the commercial environmentalist. You have to look at those studies and make sure what they are saying because they don’t count apples and apples.

Wasim Muklashy decided I would read your article , and all they’re talking about is price per megawatt for installation. Nothing about maintenance which is far higher and nothing about distribution which is also far higher. Syncing up to a global grid is the problem with solar. 60 Cycle matching is not cheap or easy. And the mess to come up and go down as the sun travels messes up your grid.
