small scale solar like this is quite inefficient compared to grid-scale stations.

grid-scale generation is much more effective, both in cost and generation efficiency.

Can you explain a bit better on the magnitude of these differences and why they exist? Thx

Great post! Thanks for this.

A lot of people point to trains efficiency as a way forward to minimize the environmental impact of the transportation sector. But are trains and railroad solarpunkable? Or is it just another "all eggs in the same basket" industry?
