One ~182km x ~211km solar thermal plant could provide all of America’s electricity, including a fully-electrified land transport sector.
100% clean power from just 0.39% of U.S land.
That’s why renewables are constantly under attack from the fossil fuel industry and their paid mouthpieces.

Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

DJ Kenny Everett was instrumental in the early success of "Bohemian Rhapsody" by repeatedly playing it on his show, despite being told not to. He was given an advance copy by Freddie, & his repeated unauthorised airplay led to huge public demand that forced the label to release the 6 minute single.
