Installing Solar panels on Sahara dessert

Sahara desert hasĀ  is the largest in the world, with 9.2 million square kilometers, so this facility would barely exceed 3.25% of its domain, as Will Lockett points out in his article.With a proper installation, the project would not involve inconvenience to humans or animals, nor would it require deforestation. And despite everything, it is an unviable project economically, environmentally and, above all, because it would involve bringing humanity to the brink of extinction. There is still another step, bringing that energy from the Sahara to the world. This would require high-power and very expensive power lines, with the addition of a 10% loss of energy along the way. The energy crisis and the historic rise in electricity prices have made clear the importance of alternative and renewable energies such as, for example, solar panels. Is it feasible to have the project ?
