Default Re: Wow new kind of solar energy

Not really new.

One thing I've always thought power companies should do, is subsidize solar panels in people's houses. Pay for a percentage of the cost and have it hooked into their grid so that any excess energy then can be distributed by them and they can make money off it. They could then provide enegry at low solar times if necessary and still turn a nice profit.

The solar panels are extremely expensive. You would wait forever to break even.
