I am lost, why would you build CS stations? Why not just replace them for the PV? Ai made up image? Just asking, seems silly. Also, they put in far away from the city pop? You would want that closer no? Because you will have losses transmitting that power.
Superb post, thanks for the link.
>China is building an enormous network of clean energy industries on the Tibetan Plateau, the world’s highest. The intention is to harness the region’s bright sunshine, cold temperatures and sky-touching altitude to provide low-cost, renewable energy. The result is enough renewable energy to provide the plateau with nearly all of the power it needs, including for data centers used in China’s artificial intelligence development.
China is the new superpower.
