just thinking: why stop at 2? I suppose a grid of heat towers with mirrors beneath would provide maximum utilization of the solar radiation
Cost, probably. If you only have 200 million, you can't build 500 million worth of towers.
Could be transmission line limits too. Improving those can be its own project.
