armpit? What is that supposed to mean exactly? (I consider myself a near native English speaker...)
A bad place to be in I suppose, but never heard this phasing.
That's right. It's one of the worst areas in the world for renewable energy. The solar resource is relatively bad, and away from coasts wind isn't great either.

I assume least desirable place in this context.

I think usually it is “X is the armpit of Y”, for example NJ is the armpit of America: https://knowswhy.com/why-is-nj-called-the-armpit-of-america/
