Spain probably is the most ideal country in Europe for solar because of the constant sunlight and fairly arid climate. i.e. if “it don’t” work there, “it won’t” work anywhere.
Ha, with the blessing of the government commission in charge of such things, our state utility company is building yet another wind farm! Isn’t that peachy? I so love paying more for less.
Here's a good one.
Nevada passed legislation that by 2020 (or thereabouts) 20% of electricity "produced" in the state must be from renewable sources.
They do not say that electricity must be sold in Nevada.
Southern Nevada has huge transmission lines going to California from Lake Mead. So, in Boulder City, giant solar farms are being built, with rent paid to the city, and the electricity sold to California whose law says "electricity used" must be renewable.
In north Nevada, geothermal is big, with sales to California.
Nevada prefers cheap natural gas generated electricity and hydroelectric.
