100 to 1000 times cheaper than the emerging 1 USD per watt PV you think? I wonder, wouldn't cheap, virtually maintenance-free PV plus very long distance HVDC power transport lines (including in the East-West direction to bring power from day time to night time places) do the trick, without the need for CF, blacklight power or other exotic technologies?
