Giant Texas solar farm destroyed!!

[rightwinger]

30 meter high wall of water due to an earthquake to make that happen, and most of the really bad radioactive isotopes were kept in the containment structures.

Worse than TMI, not nearly as bad as Chernobyl.

Still a natural cause just like Hail
Only the damage was significantly worse.

Ever hear of Fukushima?

Proper precautions should be taken. Subterranean plants with combined heat and power generation.

The thing is hail storms happen all the time, 30 meter tsunamis not so much.

Hail storms also happen very often in big open plains areas, which are the best locations for solar farms.

This is just another dumb MAGA thread. One solar farm destroyed, let’s take a look at refinery and pipeline fires since that is the most appropriate comparison:

Spate of Fires Hits Texas Refineries in 2023

Of the 12 refinery fire incidents that have taken place in 2023 so far, the U.S. refining hub of Texas has accounted for seven.

Give me a couple of broken solar panels over a refinery gas line fire any day of the week.

If your side didn't try to foist these things on us as "risk free" as well as making them replace far more reliable techs far too early, maybe we wouldn't be point shit out when they fail like this.

So your life was immeasurably made worse (yeah, we all know that would be impossible) by electric cars, solar farms, wind turbines?

Snort another line.

I’ll differ with you there. We’ve had nuke reactors on USN vessels for like 70 years. Like maybe one or two accidents involving the reactors. hundreds if not thousands of meters under the seas, 20-30 foot seas, collisions unfortunately.

Nuke power can be made as safe as possible (never 100% safe--that is an unattainable standard in power generation). We need the Navy to run the plants. Nobody shows up drunk--twice. Nobody gets a job because they know someone in HR.

We have solar panels all over the country and they survive all kinds of weather

The OP claiming hail is a reason not to have solar energy is just more Big Oil propaganda

If they lead to me needing hours to charge my car, and less reliable electrical grids?

Fuck yes.

The solar/wind/battery combo technology is still inferior for base load provisions than nuclear, hydro, oil/coal/gas.

And we probably have damage like this all over the county, just not at once like this event.

Don't act as if it is just a good thing that didn't work
4000 acres leaching solar panel chemicals into the water.
There you go';

 

[Captain Caveman]

Who'd ever guess a giant solar farm could be turned into a field of glass...by hail?

Another huge L for the climate crusaders bozos



LoL....what could possibly go wrong, right?!!!

dOy

Ironic and funny
