Comment on Ivanpah solar energy plant in Mojave Desert faces bleak future

Comments

Between the start of construction (2010) and opening of the plant (2014) solar PV dropped in price more than 60% whereas I do not thing the price of mirrors has changed much.

Seems like this is just a case of bad timing - the peak year for installing concentrated solar was 2013-2014 and it has been slowing down year on year since then. Solar PV is still on an upswing in terms of new yearly installed capacity.
