Comment on Solar panels between railway tracks?
Valmond@lemmy.world 5 days agoThe lower the voltage the higher the loss, there is a reason power lines are hundreds of thousands volts.
What about the rails being grounded?
So if the panels are square, like 1km per day? That’s not much for an existing rail line, and when are you going to do it? There are trains rolling there all the time.
What do you think, is it still a good idea?

about 42 panels per hour. If that includes wiring somehow, that is faster than other solar. Maybe their daily productivity estimate includes scooting out of the way of other trains and less than 24 hours operation.

I didn’t knew the problem with ordinary solar was the installation time \s
How on earth do you “scoot out of the way” of other trains when you yourself is a train?
I feel you all are just shitting me lol 😂
