Solar Energy Installation Becoming More Affordable

What have I been telling you!?!?    Look at this story:

The cost of solar installation has been steadily dropping for the past 10 years.  More importantly for my readers – thanks to the drop in cost of photovoltaics, the price drop has been sharpest in small installations.  Basically, people like you and I have been the biggest beneficiaries of this drop. 

That’s not to say things can’t get better.  And, occasional speed bumps not withstanding, I expect they will.  But the important thing for folks like us to keep an eye out for: 1) continuing education on the options that are available to us, 2) be watchful for government incentives to continue lowering the cost of installation, and 3) stay alert for bureaucratic land mines which can either make it more difficult to install, or make us sorry we did after the fact. 

Stay focused on the goal – minimize your grid-print!
