This is the part of the argument that gets ignored when people talk about all the sunny deserts that are available.
Why would you want a majority of your power generation in one easy to attack location?
- nico_h 3y agoThere are numerous points of failure in any grid. the big power generators and transformers are hard to hide targets. A big surface area of solar panel is much less dense in terms of power generation per square feet. So you would need a lot of ordinance to meaningfully decrease its output (except at transformer points, but that’s like in any grid).
