"both have their place"
“but they are not the same” which points to the main pictures meaning of “it’s more expensive to build parking lot solar panels then fields for solar panels. the cost being the pointed to difference.
That's fair, I do agree the point should have been more prominent. I didn't realize until the end that it was supporting both which is why I suggested you may not have read all of it.
I remember seeing this image (or one like it) and the post was flooded armchair engineers talking about how bad parking lot solar is and I assumed the "fix" was adding the conclusion at the end.
yea i was torn as to what the op’s meaning was, and just took a stab with how i saw things.
