This is pretty cool. They didn't adopt solar to this extent under good circumstances - the background is that years of warfare degraded their power grid to the point where anything but extremely local generation is hopelessly unreliable. Well, there's nothing more local than a solar panel and the external input required for it to run (sunlight) can't be blocked.
