    Yes. Heliostat’s max efficiency estimates are like 70%, sun tracking panels 40%, static panels 20%.

      20% for static panels is fine though because they are spamable. They are cheap and you can just put them on roofs and parking lots.

        Nobody was arguing anything otherwise, I was just answering questions about why we swap back to steam power for largescale. If you’re powering some LEDs and a Toaster then yeah it’s fine, if you’re powering 10,000 then heliostat time.
