Solar power in Germany – output, business & perspectives
Compared to traditional power generation sources like fossil fuels and nuclear power, there is one downside to solar power plants that''s important and often difficult to overcome: intermittency. Solar panels can only generate electricity when the sun is shining, while other traditional generation sources can supply energy 24 hours a day, …
