We’ll be producing three things: food, electricity and the science of the two in co-existence.
ELECTRICITY: The solar panels facing north [1] will have a fixed angle. Those rotating [2] east to west will automatically follow the sun.
The positioning of the panels on the ground [3] will provide a further opportunity for exposing the ground for the growing of food – the bigger the gaps the more sunshine.
PRINCIPLES: Light (easy to transport] and expensive plants preferred. Unlike the rest of Australia (the world?) we have no labour shortage: Internees who will be paid fairly, even generously, but they are in close vicinity.
The engineering must permit distribution of sunlight at an optimal level, expansion and contraction.
