quotations about solar power
So why do utilities try to stop their customers from financing local solar generation? Because, as the electric utility thinktank, Edison Electric Institute, warned back in 2013, solar power generates the most in mid-afternoon, when utilities traditionally charge the most, which means solar power is a disruptive challenge such as utilities have never faced before, and if they don't get ahead of it they may go the way of AT&T Long Lines when the internet exploded.

Rising energy bills, climate concern, fears about energy security, and improved technology are all increasing demand for renewable power. Solar power is environmentally friendly, available everywhere, and versatile. It is also, currently, the most expensive form of renewable energy--but costs are coming down and the energy source itself is free.

The Pros and Cons of Solar Power
Solar, as you know, hasn't caught on because, I mean, a solar panel takes 32 years -- it's a 32-year payback. Who wants a 32-year payback? The fact is, the technology is not there yet.

The beauty of solar power is that it has very few running costs: once the capital investment has been made the energy is effectively free, while fossil fuels must be purchased continuously and all indications are that prices will continue to rise.
