Do you think this energy is more efficient than the solar energy? As I mentioned before, I live in the north of the U.S., and we don't have so many sunny days as in L.A. or Florida, for example. So the usage of solar panels can sometimes be limited. And if you're planning to use industrial solar panels, I'd also check the local utility's interconnection rules before choosing equipment. As it might become a bit more costly in this case. Net metering, export tariffs, and permission to connect can make a bigger difference to the economics than a small difference in panel price. Batteries also need to be sized around when you use electricity, not simply added because they sound like the obvious next step. I have been comparing different approaches to energy supply, by the way. And found Copenhagen Atomics thorium reactor concept, which is aimed at a very different scale from solar installation, but to me it looks like a feasible alternative for plants and other industrial institutions.
