You can build even 100x the amount of solar, but the sun will set anyway.

- Krasnol 5y agoI don't understand how this argument got so popular even though the ignorance is so obvious. Nobody builds ONLY solar or ONLY wind or ONLY hydro. Why should you? Please stop repeating this...it's ridiculous.
- rhacker 5y agoSo if you plan on building 4KW solar, and then decide to do 100X that, you can generate ~1800KWH per day (400 * 5 hours per day of ideal sun * fudge factor). If you have the battery storage for that you can probably get through 66 days from one sunny day. The cost would be super prohibitive too, but not everyone needs 100X out there solar to get through some rough days. My personal plan is 30KW (over the next few years) so I can get through like 4 days. And heck, a stormy day will still generate enough electricity.
