I freaking live in the desert so i know I’d have solar 16h a day for like 9 months but i also know that solar panels optimal temp is 25°. In here, it’s a least 35, almost always above 40, often 45++ in the summer. Heck, there’s days and days of consecutive 49° and somehow never reach 50° making me believe that if it reach 50° the government is required by international laws to not allow citizens out or something.
Why though? Americans rarely do the opposite, and it was kinda obvious because if the optimal temp of solar panels were 25F, that translates to - 3.5°C, and that’s obviously wrong.
With the solar panel context, it’s obvious that we are talking in Celsius.

Wow that’s a lot colder than i expected, i always thought solar panels worked best around 70° or so
Ah americans…
In your defense, the commenter should have specified that it was Celsius.

But I said the desert not the north pole.
Deserts are cold too. In fact Antarctica is a desert

I already knew this but thanks anyway. Yet, let us not play around with semantics . A desert usually refers to a hot place with a lot of sand.
