14,000 panel, 5.2 MW community solar array in Nebraska destroyed by hail storm last night.
This doesn't happen to baseload power plants.

In China, in the Shanxi province, there is a huge solar energy farm right on the mountain. Solar panels stretch for 80 kilometers. It looks as if the mountain was covered with a blanket.
(Shanxi is on the Loess Plateau which has nothing but silt and dust. Nothing grows there.)

A professor of Geochemistry explained that solar isn’t all that “green.” Solar releases nitrogen trifluoride. What’s NF3’s impact on the environment? It is 17,000 times worse for the atmosphere than the dreaded CO2.

Working in Texas I saw a solar array that covered hundreds of acres that was located on the edge of the desert.
The dust storms there are legendary and have been for millennia.
I was told that the dust reduces the panels ability to create power by as much as 70% at times so the utility decided to hire a full time cleaning crew to keep the panels working.
A dozen two man crews equipped with a side by side vehicle, squeegees and spray bottles spend 12 hours a day, seven days a week cleaning the panels.
Absolutely insane. //

Climate change hail takes out a field of solar power panels
-
Double the number of fields to combat climate change
-
Climate change hail (aka springtime in the midwest) busts up two fields of panels.
I am detecting the makings of a perfect grift
