[QUOTE="Lucky, post: 1567817, member: 32659"] The land in Mt Pleasant that was mined has been reclaimed or is currently under reclamation. It is being used as cattle or recreational land. If Dallas needs power build a gas plant on 100 acres and send them 2,000 MW not a solar plant on 6,000 acres to send them 400 MW. I think we live in the same area so I’ll ask you like I ask before, how many days out of the last 100 have we had enough sunny days to power anything? Batteries will eventually work but the technology isn’t there yet and what are we going to do with them when they are no good? Drop them in the ocean? I can sort of understand building a solar plant in the desert but who in thier right mind would think it’s a good idea to clear 6,000 acres of fertile land to put in a solar plant. Please give me some good points on solar that will change my mind. I’m also not so sure all those wind turbines aren’t effecting the wind patterns and causing all this crazy weather we have now.
