Notably, Egypt has recurring summertime electricity shortages, and despite being literally in the Sahara desert has been unsuccessfully trying to substantially increase its solar energy production.

Solar power and storage is often not the super-cheap sustainable panacea that theory-crafters make it out to be.

There’s also the often overlooked issue of lack of inertia when a power grid is largely backed by sources like wind and Solar and how that lack can lead to black outs ala Spain. Kathryn Porters work on educating people on this is second to none. Highly recommend her channel….
