Jamesc Hypersonic July 14, 2019 Share July 14, 2019 Why need to buy from Australia? Put the solar panels on ships and put the ships in the south china sea. No need so long submarine cables to Australia. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesc Hypersonic July 14, 2019 Share July 14, 2019 Also why Australia using expensive photo voltaic panels? They can just use cheap glass or even plastic sheets. The solar tower works at night as well and in cloudy weather. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesc Hypersonic July 14, 2019 Share July 14, 2019 Before we buy electricity from Oz we should put our own PV solar panels on ships in the sea. Before we put solar panels on ships we should put solar panels on HDB roof tops. The other benefit of putting solar panels on HDB roofs is the top floor flat won't be so hot and will use less electricity for air con. The other advantage of solar panels is the back side of the panel will be very hot and the heat can be used to turn salt water into pure clean water to drink.

Haven't they already started putting solar panels on roofs of HDB blocks. Looks to me that's what they've done on some older blocks in Clementi.

Neutrino Supercharged July 15, 2019 Author Share July 15, 2019 Also why Australia using expensive photo voltaic panels? They can just use cheap glass or even plastic sheets. The solar tower works at night as well and in cloudy weather. Of course when these solar towers need to be replaced they have to be pulled down. Could get the guy shown in the first 30 seconds of this video to do it. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
