      It’s not really a problem, it’s just funny that so many forms of power generation we have are just boiling water to make steam that spins turbines.

        It only feels odd because that is genuinely an incredibly effective means of generation, and we found it very early on because steam is so fundamental. Nothing wrong with sticking to the best method ever discovered.

        Solar concentration is boiling some other liquid, so there’s some variance 😅
