In late 2626, ExoHuman engineers broke ground on the Solar Park — a 100 MW photovoltaic macro-farm carved into the red sands of the Tijonara Desert. A flagship of post-Crash ambition, its vast fields of canopy-style panels were intended to feed Tier-1 and Trick-2 Trickle Energy Redistribution Nodes across the Asari Region in the Habitual Belt via DC transmission lines. Persistent dust storms, supply-chain bottlenecks, and rapid panel fouling stalled work, and construction ground to a halt at roughly 20 % completion when the Great War erupted in 2629. Though never finished, the Solar Park stands as the largest centralized solar attempt on VOI 700 D, its skeletal support frames ticking in the night wind.

A shimmering expanse of silver-framed panels reflected relentless desert sun across cracked red earth, punctuated by half-erected support towers. Dust devils twirled among scaffold lines as sun-burnt technicians in mirrored overalls and Maintenance Bots clambered atop unfinished arrays to secure photovoltaic mounts. Supply Caravans of the New Kourou Courier Service rattled in from New Kourou over sand-blasted tracks; each shipment of PV cells was greeted like precious water. The midday glare off unshaded steel made the air shimmer, and every weld hissed under the heat. The wind carried the rhythmic clank of pneumatic riveters and the metallic echo of loose scaffolds — a testament to ExoHuman determination beneath an unending, blazing sky.
Now, the Solar Park is a graveyard of corroded struts and empty panel racks. Wind-scoured dunes have reclaimed half the site, swirling sand over rust-pitted conduits. Now, the Solar Park is a graveyard of corroded struts and empty panel racks. Wind-scoured dunes have reclaimed half the site, swirling sand over rust-pitted conduits. Scavenger birds like the Borr pick at exposed wiring, while solitary storm-warning beacons stand bleached and silent. The deserted access road echoes with the whistle of passing winds — a haunted monument to unfulfilled dreams.

Amid this dereliction, Aкzna stalk the skeleton arrays, their scissor-like pincers clicking on metal, venomous tails poised for any unwary creature that crosses their sun-baked hunting grounds.
Conceived as the capstone of ExoHuman solar development, the Solar Park embodied the Beta Age’s “Energy Renaissance.” Early enthusiasm yielded to frustration as panel shipments from salvaged Last Frontier stockpiles dwindled. When the Great War drained resources and mandated military priorities, assembly crews were redeployed and the site abandoned. Its remnants influenced post-War policy: the Peace Treaty ultimately forbade new energy installations outside municipal rings, consigning the Solar Park to ruin.
