‘It’s got nasty’: the battle to build the US’s biggest solar power farm

I feel like that’s too many in one area? Don’t you have to be worried about the refraction from these? I remember a story of birds getting fried flying over a solar field in the desert, not sure if that would be the same case
Maybe with a solar concentrating array, but these are photovoltaics are they not? So shouldn’t be a problem. I suspect this is just your typical nimby backlash to any large project. There’s plenty of that where I live too, alas.
A solar farm has got to be the least disruptive power generation method (especially if combined with agrovoltaics). I really don’t see how you could be against it.
