There is no end of gushing about China’s cheap solar panels—but when was the last time you saw a paean to hydroelectricity? The manufacture of solar panels involves the environmental costs from mining, waste disposal, and carbon emissions. There is no need to build megastructures, with their inevitable undesirable effects.
