Well that makes no sense, I need it shut down to get Euclid’s C-Finder to work.
Comment on How solar panels generate electricity

The facility, though cost effective at the time it was planned (2009), is now twice as expensive to run as solar photovoltaic technology, which has decreased in price much more rapidly than was expected in the 15 years since Ivanpah’s construction began.

No worry. Just throw a bug report at Bethesda, wait a few years for them to do diddly squat, bitch on all forums and then wait until a modder fixes it.

I think that’s what they called a First Generation generator.
The ones in use now will actually use sunlight to melt salt (than then is used to generate steam) rather than directly generating the steam which has way more capacity to store heat, so they have a solar conversion efficiency of between 38% and 44%, plus the molten salt can keep on being used to generate steam during the night until it cools down enough.
