“”The expansion of solar energy has always carried one tension with agricultural nations that no policy document resolved cleanly: solar farms require land and farmland is finite. Germany found a way to make that tension irrelevant by installing solar panels above active crop fields in an approach called agrivoltaics where the same land produces food

There are 700 acres of crops under the solar panels. 😍👍 https://www.facebook.com/reel/1451693053143891/?mibextid=9drbnH&s=yWDuG2&fs=e

400 GWh of BESS – battery energy storage systems, worldwide as of the end of 2025. Rapidly replacing the gas peaker plants. Western Australia is an excellent example.
“”Quantum dots are smashing the 33.7% solar efficiency wall with a theoretical potential of 66% to 80%. Unlike standard panels that generate one electron per photon, these “artificial atoms” use Multiple Exciton Generation (MEG) to trigger two or more. This breakthrough is fueling a market projected to skyrocket to $3.9 billion by 2035.”” POLARIS https://www.facebook.com/reel/888005373811370/?mibextid=9drbnH&s=yWDuG2&fs=e

“”Solar panels can’t be recycled”” That’s not true, 95% of solar panels are recycled because they are too valuable to put in a landfill. “”Offshore wind farms harm whales”” That’s not true. Seismic blasting for gas and oil does far more damage to marine life. https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid0sNVGpwbB9mH4DS9qxKhS6bBH2UQPUC8hiLMpnxkD9XYJP49kKeM4WTCno7ju5GjEl&id=100077291773871&post_id=100077291773871_pfbid0sNVGpwbB9mH4DS9qxKhS6bBH2UQPUC8hiLMpnxkD9XYJP49kKeM4WTCno7ju5GjEl&mibextid=Nif5oz

“In Germany, Farmers install solar panels above crops to simultaneously generate energy and grow food. This dual harvest approach enhances sustainability without reducing farmland.” https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid0Za7xpmgcssX6pqe4upisQY9xVDH2zP6h7itFSXUHbLF27HaHq5dwZ8yXjdww7zYrl&id=100050516563145&post_id=100050516563145_pfbid0Za7xpmgcssX6pqe4upisQY9xVDH2zP6h7itFSXUHbLF27HaHq5dwZ8yXjdww7zYrl&mibextid=CDWPTG
Solar energy is plentiful and it’s FREE! Solar energy doesn’t destroy the environment like fossil fuels do. Once the world stops burning fossil fuels there will no longer be millions of people dying of poor air quality every year. https://www.facebook.com/officialemotionaltouch/videos/1318701792539951/?mibextid=9drbnH&s=yWDuG2&fs=e Quote from Gord Clay 2025-04-24 “”I just love how the climate deniers and big oil
