The struggle to understand basic physics is common to ALL "green" energy advocates.....
As above. It’s fantasy. Instead of teaching ideology in schools maybe teach a bit of reality. Like reading, writing and arithmetic. My school must really had been backward. We were taught basic science concepts and how to think instead of what to think.
Anyway, it takes quite a bit of power to manufacture a solar cell.
The silicone must be mined or extracted, melted, formed into ingots, cut, cleaned, surface impurities removed, sensitized, screen printed and tested.
I think it’s a save bet there’s more energy going in than out.
But nobody publishes a study concerning that. Here again, rely on ignorance instead of real education.
