The Ivanpah solar plant in America , possibly the most advanced type & built in a desert , has never made any money & might be shut down because it probably never will .

Germany has a lot of Solar plants , & I believe that during the Winter they produce about 1% of their capability , [ their wind generation only does 17% of its rating over the year .] Which is why Germany has the highest electricity costs in the world .
At least France has a lot of Nuclear generation .
