Someone said earlier solar panels are rated at two years.RaceBannon said:
How about the solar panels? They weren't made and delivered by unicorns riding on a rainbowUWhuskytskeet said:RedRocket said:The 8 year carbon debt is a black eye. The key assumption is that the factories producing the batteries get about half their electricity from fossil fuel. Still has the potential to be greener than than standard ICE if production process gets more efficient or generation fuel mix changes. Solar panels had a 20 year carbon debt when they first came out but now it is closer to 2 years because the process and panels themselves have gotten more efficient. But yeah fuck technological advancement.
Tesla is powering the battery plant with a 70 MW solar farm. The assumption is bullshit.
BTW, Tesla is up 53% since Doogie's call for their solvency.
There's that scale issue again too -

Here's the article to back up my claim. Short story is it depends where they are manufactured. Panels from China are dirtier because of coal fired generation. Chinese regulations are also pretty lax so who knows how much of the waste from over manufacturing is just getting dumpedUWhuskytskeet said:

It's good to see that the 200 Billion in green energy subsidies had one success story and didn't either go banko or get snapped up by the Chinese for half a penny on the dollar.UWhuskytskeet said:RedRocket said:The 8 year carbon debt is a black eye.
