    There is virtually no solar in Florida yet it is one of the sunniest places in the US. Ask yourself why?

    Power density and efficiency. Until alternative energies ( and they will someday) can produce the amount of power for a given area that matches fossil fuels, solar, wind etc will take a back seat. They cannot provide by themselves
    the amount of power that consumers demand (as of yet) nor can they do it 24 hours a day. Alternatives are improving everyday but they have a long way to go.

    because solar energy is a pain in the ass.
    And it takes decades to recover the cost of installing the panels and conversion hardware. And by then you need to repair or replace the first ones you installed.

    There is another reason why people are not gaga over solar energy, and that's because it serves no purpose in the grand scheme.

    Solar can and will change our energy landscape. Solar thermal plants anyway. It will just take more time and improved thermal storage. It will happen though.
