    It’s definitely more efficient to use energy close to where it’s generated although I’m not sure by how much.

      I think the answer is very complex and will depend on many factors.

      It kinda becomes irrelevant if you’re comparing solar to coal or something anyway. Who cares if solar is “inefficient” if you’re replacing coal
