Modeled impact of large-scale wind and solar farms...
Like any utility, you don't need a guy just hanging around waiting for the transformers to explode. You truck him in every 50 years when that actually happens. It's time domain multiplexing, essentially.

The cleaning is largely a solved problem too.. You don't need 50 $10k/year people with squeegees, you just need one person in a $50k truck.

If there’s one job that robots are certainly going to take, it is solar panel squeegee guy.
