Worlds Largest Solar Project Abandoned

It sounded like a good idea:
. . . build massive solar energy plants in the deserts of North Africa and
. . . the Middle East to supply Europe with
. . . 15% of its electricity needs by 2050.

. . . following disagreements over:
. . . . . . funding and
. . . . . . persistent political instability in the desert nations,
. . . . . . . . . where the plants were going to be built.
