Yep too true, I have been using solar power and batteries for over 30 years. As an Engineer, I have no issues setting these up. The thing is solar is great during the day, as are wind turbines to a lesser extent. The thing is these cost 5 to 10 times more than reliable power. If they are sincere, the only option for day AND night power is Nuclear. I dont give a toss if the power goes out after dark, but 95 percent of the population may find that they should go for Reliables, or just accept load shedding and brown outs.
