Wondering what's happening around here, meant to dig in.

I travel 30-miles out to my camp in the NW Florida boondocks. Solar is booming around here. "They", whoever they is, put in a huge farm to the north, and a bigger one just went up to the south. There's another new road marked, "Bla, bla, whatever, Solar Project". I've got lost and stumbled on yet a 4th monster farm.

While I hate to see hundreds of acres of ecosystem literally burned to make space, it seems worth it. But where is that stunning amount of power going? Who owns it? Is my house getting that power? Is it lowering my bill? Can we draw the local (coal?) power plant down?

I'm all in for nuclear, but I'll take solar all day long. Been screwing around with cheap panels at home and camp to charge 12V deep-cycle batteries. Works great! One more panel (3x) and I can drive the trolling motor on my tiny boat free and clear!
