Bill Weir on the Biggest Solar Farm Closing: ‘For Opponents to Solar Energy, This Will Be Seen as a Testament to Wasted Tax Dollars’

EXCERPT:

But when it was built, no one could imagine that solar voltaic, that the panels that turn sunlight into electricity without boiling water would be so gobsmackingly cheap. Cheap as a fence panel, basically, if you're building a house right now. So that ultimately is what killed Ivanpah."
