How do you mean not particularly sunny? Even Boston is at a similar or lower latitude than Southern Europe, can imagine Virginia being even better for solar.

Have you ever been to Virginia? Have you compared it to the American southwest for sunshine?

If that’s “not particularly sunny” for solar energy, you would be amazed to see how many solar panels there are in Europe north of Mediterranean countries.

You can find solarfarms in Denmark. Which latitude wise is in the middle of Canada. If there make sense here, why not Virginia?

I don't know much about solar panels, but just looking up sunshine hours it seems Virginia has a similar amount as Texas? And more than double as Billund.
