Germany stood 2,600 solar panels dead upright on a Bavarian lake, edge-on to the sun, because a law says you can shade 15% of the water and not an inch more, and the rows lean like sails on underwater...Every solar farm you have driven past looks about the same from the road. Rows of dark panels tilted up at the sky, angled south, all of them waiting on noon.www.autonocion.com
