This is one of the most egregious misallocations of capital I have ever seen.

Why? Is it not producing energy?

Why not generate power in the middle of nowhere with no Bitcoin miner.

I don't know what I'm looking at.

It looks like a field of mirrors focusing the suns energy on an object that gets hot. i assume that heat turns into electricity one way or another.

It boils water for steam.

Cool concept but ooof

How many we gonna need just to power the cars lmfao

I figured that, but i wasnt sure.

I’ve always wanted to release a million balloons at the base of tower! How many birds do you think those things kill? I’d also like to know how much water they use. The output of a dirty solar panel can drop 20-30%, I would assume it would be similar for those mirrors and they are located in an extremely dusty locations, so will need to bee cleaned very often. Not to mention the maintenance on the steam generator with all the thermal cycling, they must have cracking issues.

Not from a prototyping standpoint.

Any capital allocated by the gov either by force (mandates) or by draining founds by cantillion effect will be a misallocation of capital from a praxeological perspective.
