      Putting solar farms in urban areas instead of rural ones doesn’t make much sense.

        How so? A) Less transmission lines to where it’s needed and b) more qualified/trained staff centralized to the solar installs.

        I’m not against rural solar by any stretch but I can’t fathom being against urban solar? We need to solar all the things.

          In my post I literally said that solar can be put on top of houses so I’m not sure why you want to argue with me about this. I just think urban areas are better served by homes with solar on top than parking lots with solar on top.

            Okay, reasonable enough, I had read your response as “no solar, just homes and put the solar in rural”.
