Because if neither panel was built, conventional energy would be
available for use elsewhere instead of being destroyed.

The fusion dreamers know this. Step one is net energy produced.
Step two is enough energy produced to pay back all of the energy lost
during the research phases.

pv is no different.
It consumes energy (via dimes) until such time as it can generate enough
net energy to pay for all of the gasoline destroying net energy sinks
stupidly previously installed.

The California initiative alone is enough to set back net energy pv
breakeven by fifty years.

See /#decades for a detailed analysis.
