Post Comments - An economy in recession burns less fuel

Just heard on the news that our local electric company is planning to raise rates. They stated that due to the poor economy their revenues are falling, businesses closing their doors, many empty houses, and people conserving more. Other factors include the expected cost increase of natural gas and a shortage of water to drive the hydroelectric plants. What they aren't telling the public is several large commercial consumers have offset a big portion of their demand with massive solar arrays.

 There are several company's advertising solar power systems for home use, the Government is offering 50% rebates for new installations and the State is offering tax credits of up to 20%, unfortunately these are the old silicon based panel

Where are the thin film solar panels when you need them?
