@cell Developing economies have the excuse that better energy requires an industrial base and you don't have any industrial base unless you have power to begin with. European countries have no excuses.

@aetios @cell i dunno, Chinese standalone solar units seem pretty affordable now? North Korea experiences surge in solar panel usage, since their infra is so bad. so I thought sth similar could be happening shrugz

@kaia @cell @aetios The panels themselves are pretty cheap the problem are the batteries and the enormous pollution from replacing a million house batteries every few years
