Solar power generation hits an all time high!

[JDs Couch]

I’m honestly not sure if the front of my house roof (southern facing) would be large enough for that many panels?

My friends who install panels say they often put them on East and West facing roofs, and the production is only down a few percent.

Friends?

Friends?

Hahahaha my thoughts exactly! Guy is prob standing on a bridge somewhere contemplating life while thinking about DJT.

That's infuriating. I would challenge that bylaw in court.

I'm not surprised in the least that your first reaction would be litigation.

Solar would be difficult in the US where you have building materials that only last 20 years. 20 years is what a medieval thatched roof lasts too.

According to Erik the Red it was only 7-10 years.
I'm trying to decide which is more of an eye sore; open pit coal mine OR acres and acres of solar panels.

You're trying to decide? Lol. Plants and livestock can grow and thrive in a solar farm. A coal mine poisons everything around it.
Oh no, a solar spill! We got....sunshine everywhere!

Your country exports a hell of a lot of coal. In fact it's a financial bedrock to your energy independence.

Is he from Australia or NZ?

Anyway the countries we export to don't have to use the coal for burning. They can use lumps of it for Christmas presents and for decorating walls and floors and stuff.

Those New Zealanders wouldn't want to bang their back on the corner of that solar panel while they are shagging the sheep.

NZ
Where the men are men and the sheep are scared

Yeah mate! Sheep snagging jokes are always in style! On ya cunt!

In 2023, New Zealand's coal exports were valued at approximately $36 million USD.
In comparison, we exported over $11 billion worth of milk powder and cheese.
So, yeah, nah. Not a big export at all.

I still can't get over the fact that "panels you point at sky and make electricity from sunlight with no fuel is the cheapest source of energy" needed explanation

Those are special New Zealand Solar Sheep

I think they are loving the shade and increased grass growth under the panels...

A convenient oversight, JD is full of those.
