Med Hat Solar Project

[jazz]

Shut down, uneconomical, cost over runs, failed to produce sufficient energy or returns to cover costs, dismantled and no buyer could be found for the surplus equipment. Landfill I suspect.

Fossil fueled equipment involved in the dismantle.

Med Hat has the most sunny days in the entire country.

Nice project.

I know, lets try this on a nation wide basis. Surely thats got to work.

Doesn’t Medicine Hat have the most hours of sunshine in Canada???

If solar doesn’t work in Medicine Hat consider it dead in Canada.

Solar Thermal which is for hot water. Not Solar PV which generates electricity. Two very different technologies! But don't let that stop you from trashing solar at every opportunity! hahahaa.

Bloomberg and the International Energy Agency must be wrong about solar pv too! LOL

Solar Thermal which is for hot water.

Cold water, no electricity, no heat all the same thing. What part of total fail dont you understand?

They can sell the equipment to Deadmonton which plans to blight 54 acres in the river valley with solar panels. Fools with other people's money.

I don’t think you guys would know the difference anyway, between solar thermal and solar PV! LOL
it’s a good a good thing you get solar energy to grow your crops. Or do you think because it’s “solar” energy It doesn’t work! Hahaha

Dec 2019 was the start of 25th solar cycle. Not very good business starting a solar project near the end of cycle. Cycle 25 is forecast to be lower out put than the last one
