Re: Drone video of Teslas 18MWh solar farm +
Interesting. Looks like some of it is real, and some of it was animation. Anyways, I am looking into large solar farms now. I am interested in understanding the variables, the costs involved, and the return on investment. I would love to create a solar park, producing clean energy, long term. Any mo...

Re: Hub motors vs mid-drives: is unbiased comparison possibl
