Solar Power Gets Offensively Cheap Momentum: Ars Technica reports

🐿️ The Squirrel's Take
The real squirrel move is that solar's cost curve has turned it into an infrastructure play where the scarce resource is grid capacity, not photons.
💡 Why it matters
Dirt-cheap solar can push coal and gas generators off the grid faster than policy mandates, remaking energy markets and industrial siting decisions.

Ars Technica reports solar power has become 'offensively cheap,' with costs so low it is reshaping electricity markets and accelerating adoption. The coverage highlights that solar's price advantage is now the central economic driver in energy decisions.
