I am here in Spain talking to my Spanish co-workers about Solar in Spain and they state underneath the Solar Power plants are Diesel generators.
What a great green solution.
Further they state the electrical rates are sky-high and going up ever more.
I did a quick search and found these articles on Solar-Diesel. So I have a co-worker tell me this and I get confirmation on the web.
Further there are holes in the tubing for some of the Solar farms so they now need my work, NDE inspection, I thought this was renewable, now it needs replacement and repairs, that is not green.
The insanity of greenery | Watts Up With That?

Although the exact details are slightly different there is now an intriguing report of the scam in practice. The text is based on a machine translation of the original German text:
After press reports, it was established during inspections that several solar power plants were generating current and feeding it into the net at night. To simulate a larger installation capacity, the operators connected diesel generators.
“This is just the tip of the iceberg,” said one industry expert to the newspaper “El Mundo”, which brought the scandal to light. If solar systems apparently produce current in the dark, will be noticed sooner or later. However, if electricity generators were connected during daytime, the swindle would hardly be noticed.

Solar diesel power station is erected at Pilbara region of Western Australia. This one is the world's first solar diesel plant which has been opened at Marble Bar. Marble Bar is a place well known for recording high temperatures.
Today Mr. Norman Moore (WA's Mines and Petroleum Minister) opened the Pippunyah Solar Diesel Power Station. This station uses the huge sun tracking solar panel farm located in Australia to get powered.
