Think of an array of solar equipment the size of a state, in the middle of a desert, think of all the support equipment and transmission equipment, and support/maintenance personnel you would need, all likely far away from population centers. Than figure in the difficulties in transmitting all that energy. Also remember you only get power in the day (and much less on heavily overcast days).
