We need to start thinking of alleiviating the current presures on power grid development and copper useage. The possibilities of being able to have personal house power plants is probably coming soon. They could be self regulating and reporting and would not need to be very large. It would also eliminat the possiility and uncertianty of blackouts and having to count on local power companys as well as triming the need for a variable line power loss with transformers and capaciters. I do have one question however, and that is how much power would an average household use per day?

Welcome to Colorado!

I wonder if anyone knows how these panels hold up in snow and hail storms? I suppose they are pretty sturdy, I have just never had the opportunity to inspect one. Can anyone tell me what the exposed surface is made of?

We need someone like this in my neighborhood.

We have 2 older solar panels ( and a wind generator) and they work very well.They hold up through all sorts of wetaher..And we are up north. The new ones are very efficent.I would to see more on businesses and houses.

We're moving to a condo in the Portland Maine next month. It is a new development and i wonder if this type of thing would go over to try to make it Green.
I am trying to change things and I am not even there yet...I also keep thinking that a community garden would be great. Also an area where people can dry their clothes on a line in good weather. One problem I keep running against is i want to do things but can't afford volunteering my time. Maybe I can work some kind of payment for services if i do work there...so it can work for me.-

Very cool.
We need more businesses like Namaste.
De-centralizing energy production with sustainable sources like wind and solar is an important part of the solution.
See link for great news about solar windows developed at MIT. -
I think the future of "renewable energy" depends on making it profitable for investors. It takes time, but the fact that companies like GM and Shell are putting money into resources like wind and solar energy (even if only to boost public opinion of themselves) has helped show the economic viability of going "green".
As for the benefits of working for this company...where do I apply?! :)
