resistance or that a grid is not a battery? Quick Beave, what is the farthest distance electricity can be shipped before 90% is lost?

Beave, I think you'd better inform the folks at the solar promoting web site about your pricing:

No prices there at 0.15 per kilowatt-hour. Best price? $21.34. Best grid price with (gasp) radiation. $4.15. Now I do know, Beave that rich kids with fantasies think everyone can quadruple their electricity bill and pay for huge toxic batteries at additional cost for those days when there's snow cover or the sun doesn't shine.

This is why the fraction of people who use solar power, even though its been mindlessly hyped for decade after decade after decade, is around 1%.

People who understand poverty, the need for energy to reverse poverty and the crisis of global climate change can't afford to live in day dream lah-lah land. They support the immediate emergency expansion on nuclear power.
