Solar Powered Grid between China and Europe for almost 18 hours of non-stop power generation?
Campaign: Which radical ideas for new energy sources deserve investigation?
Photovoltaic / Solar powered energy generation usually suffer from its energy storage efficiency. What if the rail-route from China to Europe were to be peppered with solar panels; and the connected grid can be used to power the trains, and at the same time provide the needed energy to nearby neighbourhood. The train service started two years ago, https://www.scmp.com/week-asia/business/article/2089507/puffing-across-one-belt-one-road-rail-route-nowhere Obviously this is just an idea, and proper research and feasibility studies must be conducted.
