A derelict wind farm.
I took this photo back in 2011 from somewhere in the southern part of the Big Island of Hawaii.

A stoner friend of mine thats known for crackpot ideas was like "I should start a busniness that recycles solar panels that are starting to wear out and resell them in rural areas where people can just install a bunch of them to make up for the lower output"
And I had that moment where I realised "Thats not a bad idea... from anyone... but especially from hkm"
This already exists. When utility scale solar farms change panels their used ones are resold.
Oh I'm not surprised that its done, just that he had the idea.
