What the bloody hell are you taking about. Minnesota is further south than the UK. Southern Minnesota is the same latitude as the Mediterranean coast.

Learn some facts before spouting bs.

The UK is in the same boat as Minnesota for solar PV. There isn't a solar panel in the UK that will ever make more power than it took to produce.

  • It takes 1 to 3 years to offset the energy used to manufacture a solar panel.

    The only situation where you would have a point is micro wind generation, and that's basically no longer a thing because it doesn't work.

  • You keep getting downvoted because nearly everything you say is not only factually incorrect but contradicts common sense.

    If you want people to take you seriously, start linking to facts and analyses by credible sources or showing your math.

    You're clearly and provably wrong, and looking at your comments shows me lots of clearly and provably wrong statements, and almost every single one of them pertains to energy.

    ..so I presume you have a dog in this race.
