Power the U.S. With Solar Panels!

When you understand how photons produce heat then you will know why.

When you understand that using electricity produces heat, you'll realize your error.

Or does work. But whatever waste heat generated from electricity use is independent of the generating source. So replacing fossil fuels with solar power doesn’t change the amount of waste heat from electricity usage. But solar does produce an incremental cooling effect at the solar farm because photons - which would have otherwise produced heat - was converted into electricity instead.

So the error is all yours and you know it.

Have you considered that the use of electricity and the generation of electricity are two different processes taking place at different times and different locations? Also, if you're attempting to use the Law of Conservation of Waste Heat, you've failed to read all the provisos...

Solar power got cheap. So why aren’t we using it more?​

It turns out there’s a lot of inertia built into the energy system.

Solar power got cheap. So why aren’t we using it more?​

The cost of renewable energy, and solar in particular, has plummeted in the last decade. So why has there not been a green revolution?

""Solar, in particular, has cheapened at a blistering pace. Just 10 years ago, it was the most expensive option for building a new energy development. Since then, that cost has dropped by 90%, according to data from the Levelized Cost of Energy Report and as highlighted recently by Our World in Data. Utility-scale solar arrays are now the least costly option to build and operate."

Can't capture the electricity for later use and heat the surface of the planet at the same time.

So you're finally admitting your error.

The waste heat from solar means you can capture electricity for later use and heat the surface of the planet at the same time.

Moving heat from a solar farm to my microwave doesn't cool the planet, does it?

Unreliable, low capacity renewable energy is expensive....when you need 24-7 power.

The cost of dealing with the effects of unchecked global warming will trump every other expense the human race has ever suffered by an order of magnitude. At least.

Obviously.
When you count every storm, every flood as caused by AGW, it adds up quickly.

Solar and wind power are for queers and dumbasses to stupid too understand basic Physics.

Which basic physics would that be?

I can’t think of a better way to usher in the next glacial cycle than the widespread use of solar power in the middle of an ice age.

No incremental change in waste heat from electricity usage. Waste heat is the same regardless of the generating technology.

So the farm cooling isn't net cooling of the planet?

Photons are energy. Heat is energy. But photons are not heat. Photons produce heat by striking atoms and causing atoms to excite and move. It is the movement of the atoms that the photons struck that produces the heat.

"Any solar radiation that is used to produce energy is solar radiation that does not warm the surface of the planet. If you reduce the solar radiation the planet receives it will result in a net cooling effect"

How does that net cooling effect work?

Why do you want the planet to be colder in the middle of an ice age?

How much will it cost when we destroy the world with human caused global warming. Also, I have mentioned here and there how much more cheaply workers in China can make things than we can here in the U.S. But I think that part of the reason they can do so as cheaply is that the government houses them. To whatever degree, feeds and cloths them. As well as educate them, etc. With that much of their living expenses being taken care of, it's no wonder that they can make things cheaper than us. So as far as solar panels here in the U.S. goes, it would basically cost as much as the government wanted to pay for them. If they depend on private capitalist industry to do the job, it will cost up the ass. And probably then some.

Stupid fucks like you are willing to sacrifice all of humanity in the name of global warming. There won't be any clothes, or farmed

food, vehicles, or electricity if you retards get your way. Civilization will be reduced to a few illiterate nomadic tribes.

Fuckin' tards. You're out to destroy the progress, cultures, and records of every civilization ever.

How does moving some heat from solar farm to city make the planet colder?
Especially when the lower albedo means more heat retained near the surface.

less infrared heat emitted at the solar farms after the panels were installed
