Seems to my ignorant eyes that we could always somehow split the power received into more manageable units, even if it has to be splitted a million times, 🤷‍♂️.

    If we could eliminate transmission costs (superconductivity) and make energy storage trivial then it would become viable. We’d just install lightning rods around the world and plug them into the grid. We’d get a lot of power, after all.

    But those are two huge “ifs.”

      So we are just a few miracles away from a less effective solution than solar, forgive me if i don’t think its worth the brain power.
