We aren't building mass solar for the same reason we aren't building mass nuclear. I think it was Bob that quoted this, the governator of California said after hearing that a solar farm had it's permit rejected because the power lines would interfere with the desert environment; "If you can't put solar power in the Mojave desert then where can you put it?" It's not about whether it will make money the first year, it's about having solar and nuclear power online before OPEC decides to stop pumping oil. Which is better? Draft a million young men to go to the middle east and force them to pump oil or take the solar and nuclear power to generate hydrogen and extract oil from coal? The government must create incentives to build solar and nuclear. Maybe it takes me too long to get to the point but this is a complex issue. My point is that solar will be a major energy source in the future. Never 100% but 40% would be my guess. The energy from the sun is always there and there is lots of it. Start-up technology is always expensive but mass produced soar equipment will be affordable.
