PV solar energy park 4x4 W

PV solar energy park 4x4 W by makemakey

A smaller area version of the 4x16 Photovoltaic solar energy park,
More suitable for hilly areas and to make non square shaped parks in combination with the E, N, W versions.

Photovoltaic solar energy park by makemakey; build your own solar farm!
Provides 2 MW green energy
Building $ 3400
Running $ 8 /w
Area 4x4
Pollution 0
Noise 0

Idea is that a PV solar park uses more area and is more expensive to build initially then wind, however its upside is no noise and low running cost (analogy to real life, almost no maintenance or moving parts)

Compare with wind
Provides 4-8 MW green energy
Building $ 6000
Running $ 80 /w
Area ~4x4
Pollution 0
Noise 75

Solar thermal energy park by makemakey

Provides 10 MW of green energy, at 5x14 area, but needs a bit of water for the steam turbines.
Building $ 8000
Running $ 64 /w
Area 5x14
Pollution 0
Noise 20
needs water 240/m3 W

---------------------------------------
Update 1; added low LOD model, optimized textures.
Update 2; LOD reflection works now (patch 1.06), optimized poly (Tris) count, game balance; more power output, lower build cost.
