But is it the same at all? You design a solar panel and try one and make prototypes and then install thousands and it’s about the same and it scales. A nuclear reactor on the other hand…
- ggm 3y agoA tonne of peskovite lab demos have failed to launch at scale in industrial deployment. It is really hard to make stable, high yield, high power PV. Small increments are all we're left with. You're saying the risk:consequences equation differs. I don't disagree.
- fsh 3y agoModern silicon PV cells are cheap, non-toxic, stable, and their efficiency is more than half of the theoretical maximum. The big challenge is storage, PV generation already outperforms any other power source.
