>  Yes. Maybe one of the alternatives will be solar...

Although rare, consider the effects of a significant hailstorm
(baseball sized hail over 10's of square miles at 100MPH, punching
holes in buildings), or tornado, or lightning strikes on that rather
large and rather delicate solar plant.

When you have a large scale structure like that, rare weather events
for any given acre add up.

I'm not against solar, but it's still pretty impractical.
