I'd like to see the math myself. I have the suspicion that there's funny math involved, like when the nuclear industry forgets the cost of warehousing nuclear waste for 100 000 years.

My most pressing question is how the capital costs are factored in. China built a huge PV capacity and arguably that made the price of panels collapse. Also, the semiconductor industry had been indirectly subsidizing the PV industry by upgrading their old fabs.

I also really don't understand how PV can be cheaper than Concentrated Solar Power < literally just a bunch of mirrors aimed at a normal thermal plant.

Lot's of funny numbers, lots of questions, few open source gitted models available to play with.
