#galahd uses solar energy
Note
Since technology from gallard is very eco-friendly does that mean the use renewable energy? if so could they make money to support their community by building wind farms and solar panels 4 settlements outside insomnia?
Galahd is very much tilted in the direction of solarpunk. The architecture is surrealistic with Arabic influences. Wood and stone are the maiin building materials. There are arches and roofs are flat and used for more living space. During rainy season (autumn), they built temporary steep roofs. It's a community effort, which might as well become a festival.
Anyways.
I feel like Galahd mostly functions on solar energy, but it doesn't have the same easthetic as rl? Like, they don't have that sleek solar panel look and stuff? Mostly because fantasy, but also this is a world where magic is very much a thing and a meteor provides electirc energy for Lucis.
This is to say, yes to solar energy, but they use magic/fantasy materials for it. Does that make sense?
So, to answer your question: I don't really think so?
There is a war going on and from environmental clues we can tell that Niflheim has destroyed the settlements outside Insomnia. A wind or solar farm would be a very easy target. Which makes it a waste of resources. And like I said, I honestly don't think the Galahkari build solar farms or put solar panels on their roofs like we think of it irl.
Your question wasn't a bad idea, and I'm sure something like that got kicked around at a Clan meeting at least once, but I'm honestly not sure they would do it. There might very well be a lack of materials needed, which makes them very expensive, and if they decided to build it outside Insomnia? Niflheim would destroy it pretty quickly.
