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 United States got the Grand Coulee on the Columbia River, the Hoover Dam on the Colorado, and the dams of the Tennessee Valley Authority. Instead, that pure status is now reserved above all for wind and solar.
