Solar farm and a tornado

[D2Cat]

Doesn't seem cost effective to me.

The storm's ferocious winds tore through the Lake Placid Solar Power Plant in Highlands County, leaving 97 percent of the county without power in the immediate aftermath.


Incredible aerial footage by Duke Energy shows the extent of destruction to the $100 million facility that powers 12,000 homes.
The plant opened in December 2019.

Hail has destroyed many solar farms also. I can't imagine that hazardous waste cleanup cost.

Yeah, green energy is going to have some growing pains. I wonder how long the outage will be.

That IS a solar farm!

cleanup cost ? NOTHING... just use the SAVINGS from having gone 'green' !

nice job would be to cut the grass there.....

they just have to post 'HAZMAT warning signs every 50', condemn the entire area, add armed guards and dogs 24/7....
