There are no commercially viable ways to store grid scale energy. And that is what's holding the deployment of solar "in place of" coal. As a supplementary system, it's good. As a replacement, not yet.

Other countries have already been successful in entirely replacing coal with renewables. America would be well advised to follow suit rather than wasting money on trying to hold back the tide.
