The all-electric Subaru R1e to be tested in NYC
Technologically we could build solar power plants so expansive, covering such a large area, that they could be seen from space. But we don’t have to.
We could plaster the world’s deserts with solar photovoltaic or concentrated solar thermal power plants to provide many times the amount of power needed to run the world’s economies. But we don’t have to turn the world’s deserts into energy-generating industrial sites. Large scale solar power plants can be built anywhere where sun-drenched real estate is affordable.
