In a previous episode with BF Randall you discussed extensively the EROEI (of nuclear/fossil vs other energy sources). I heard in this episode that solar panels “pay off” many times during their lifetime, but expected some more discussion on this, have things changed? I appreciate your work, thanks so much!

Good episode. It misses the “elephant in the room” with solarPV which is the sizeable seasonal deficit which is unbridgable. See my analysis of Ontario below.
