Solar Energy is almost economically feasible

Thanks to Tammy’s blog, I found RealGoods.com. From the site: At Real Goods, we’ve been selling solar since 1978, when the price was well over $300 per watt or more than $6 per kWh (kilowatt-hour).

Today, with State of California incentives, that $6 per kWh cost has come down to around $.12/kWh, a 98% drop in only 24 years! What this means for you is that you’ll be guaranteeing yourself an electrical rate of $.12/kWh for the next 30 years, over which time we all know electrical rates from the utilities will be sharply increasing.

Hadn't even thought about this as a goal. . .

because I’m an apartment-dweller right now. But this is still good news, and I will spread the world. I was born in a solar-panelled house in 82, but my parents gave up solar when we built a new house. My dad’s a designer/builder—time to get him back in the game!
