Encyclopedia description
The name 'Solar Energy Farm' is an oversimplification used colloquially to avoid the jaw breaking phrase 'Conglomerated Multiband Energy Cell Production Facility' which would be technically more correct. This installation uses advanced technology to capture solar power and convert it into usable energy at up to 99% efficiency. It is run mostly on fully-automatic; human intervention is only required in the case of damage that is not recoverable by the installation's mechanical self-repairing capabilities.
