Comment on Switzerland Unveils World’s First Operational Solar Railway Project
Mihies@programming.dev 2 weeks agoHuh, what? While placing solar panels on the roof isn’t ideal, it’s far from problematic. And roofs aren’t only on resident houses, you have plenty of industrial ones which are usually even better as they are flat.

From the government perspective, first of all you need to redesign your electrical grid, from scratch, everything, from ground up. After which you will be left with the electrical production you can’t predict, can’t control, can’t regulate, which will grow or shrink at the intervals you, once again, can’t control or even predict. And that’s if we’re talking about sensitive models of giving people subsidies so they can put panels themselves. If I start thinking about the logistics of some agency putting solar on people’s roofs, my head starts hurting.
