No one will fund molten salt reactors.
The DoE is still set on using reactors that breed nuclear fuel for weapons. The entire nuclear industry is designed around this.
Molten salt doesn't have to use fuel rods.
I live in the desert and most animals crave shade during the day. If a lizard, snake or bunny has the choice they will seek shade by the hottest point of the day.
I think most solar panels should be owned by people.
If people put solar on their roof tops there is no desert land scape to alter, no tranamission lines to build, no transmission losses.
