Africa and other Emerging Markets... impact of energy abundance. What does this enable? Also - what innovations in solar are not now, but could become big in 5-10 years? (solar windows, solar mural coverings, solar cars... IDK, go crazy)

When does this make sense? "solar on a boat" has got to be generally more difficult than on land (ht @solarchase.bsky.social) I see the Bohai see has mean depth of only 60 feet and is somewhat calm, while Qinhuangdao is pretty mountainous. So maybe its cheaper than land here? What else?

How do the subsidies compare? I asked O3 to compare and it said basically fossils fuels get ~ $1.3/MWHR while renewables got $10-40 per mwhr. Is that remotely accurate? chatgpt.com/share/6852de...

How do they decide what to curtail? I thought gas and coal were supposed to be dispatchable. Can they not turn them off?
