Here's a fun fact. Did you know that in NY state, with rebates and tax breaks the government will pay for 45% of a home solar array? Go to http://www.dsireusa.org/ to find all federal and state programs for your state if you're in the U.S. Even if your state doesnt help much, it's still free energy and the panels will last longer than you will. |
That's great to hear and I wish more States would follow that example.
In Arizona there's close to zero incentive to install solar panels - and Phoenix is like the capital of the sun, isn't it?
You'd think most homes and business would be outfitted with solar technology here in the "desert"...
