    At night I don't need solar power, plain and simple ... unless I produce > 50% of my power by solar and can store the excess power ... wich is unlikely.

    And you don't need it in winter when the days are shorter and you need more to heat your home, and you don't need it in the rainy season aka the monsoon season in your country, and you don't need at night when you are in the hospital and your factory doesn't need it all day every day.

    But really you are right you never need solar, because every country in the world has built their power grids around always available dispatchable power not intermittent sources. Go figure.

    Get thee to a nunnery

    The point is not what the PEOPLE do but what the COUNTRY does , and as industry and business is closed, the power consumption is roughy half at night.

    How dumb are you?

    O"rlly ? Tell me oh enlightened wizard of electricity is 2/3rds (the correct answer by the way) greater or less than zero ? And just where does that 2/3rds come from when your non intermittent power source isn't there ? Oh and lets not talk about the months when it isn't clear and the days are shorter.

    Once again go see a priest. Get a religion you will at least understand you have instead of one that has you thinking you have none. That way you will at least stop bringing shame on yourself and your family.

    I pointed out to some GP post that *here* we have since about 5 month sunshine from 6:30 to 18:00 *every day* except 3 or 4.

    Yes that 18:00 to 6:30 doesn't count for you ?

    Oh and now are people in bed by 6:00 PM ? Not using the AC, or the Heater, The Television, The Stove , Charging The Electric Car.

    Oh wait, not only are those things you that you need constant power sources for, they are things that trying to use solar directly for won't work at all. They are all electric.

    Dude, you don't need to argue with me, you need to see a priest and get a religion you actually realize you have.

    My telepathy ?

    I'm not the guy claiming to know the habits, of everyone in the town where I live let alone the entire country.

    I am also not the guy who thinks the area where I live represents the entire world

    Most of all I am not the guy, who somehow thinks solar isn't an intermittent power source that isn't available more often that it is.

    Oh and because I am kind I will answer and earlier question of yours. You wanted to know why you kept coming back to this thread ? It's because you are so horribly wrong on the big question. Hell you were even more wrong than the guy who proposed the vacuum flywheels and parabolic trackers to replace a two dollar immersion heater that would still work better. His stuff was possible if completely impractical. You have an insane need to deny reality

    That isn't telepathy that's observation as you have done it in every post you have made here.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

    Thailand's climate is influenced by monsoon winds that have a seasonal character (the southwest and northeast monsoon).[52]:2 The southwest monsoon, which starts from May until October is characterized by movement of warm, moist air from the Indian Ocean to Thailand, causing abundant rain over most of the country.[52]:2 The northeast monsoon, starting from October until February brings cold and dry air from China over most of Thailand.[52]:2 In southern Thailand, the northeast monsoon brings mild weather and abundant rainfall on the eastern coast of that region.[52]:2 Most of Thailand has a "tropical wet and dry or savanna climate" type (Köppen's Tropical savanna climate).[53] The south and the eastern tip of the east have a tropical monsoon climate.

    Thailand is divided into three seasons.[52]:2 The first is the rainy or southwest monsoon season (mid–May to mid–October) which prevails over most of the country.[52]:2 This season is characterized by abundant rain with August and September being the wettest period of the year.[52]:2 This can occasionally lead to floods.[52]:4 In addition to rainfall caused by the southwest monsoon, the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) and tropical cyclones also contribute to producing heavy rainfall during the rainy season.[52]:2 Nonetheless, dry spells commonly occur for 1 to 2 weeks from June to early July.[52]:4 This is due to the northward movement of the Intertropical Convergence Zone to southern China.[52]:4 Winter or the northeast monsoon starts from mid–October until mid–February.[52]:2 Most of Thailand experiences dry weather during this season with mild temperatures.[52]:2:4 The exception is the southern parts of Thailand where it receives abundant rainfall, particularly during October to November.[52]:2 Summer or the pre–monsoon season runs from mid–February until mid–May and is characterized by warmer weather.[52]:3

    1 To get a temporary waste repository in place. Note I don't say long term because what we call waste will be very very valuable, it's all transmuted isotopes most of which don't occur in nature.

    2. Get the NRC out of the way and have them actually trim down and simplify the regulation of power plants.

    Spending money on new designs or upgrading and standardizing current design, would be great as well. Imagine if we had a national standard design that could be quickly deployed and licensed without endless approvals needed.
