What are you doing about energy prices?

Nice setup Vince, and a nice concise writeup on the website. Been a while since I was "into" PV systems... that 25 yr projected panel life caught me by surprise, as cell life was running something less than half that back when I was actively studying.

Guess I need to stick a toe back in the PV waters if things have improved that much... it was still at barely better than system cost breakeven for the entire useful lifespan last time I had a peek.

Thx for that link

Very nice setup!

How much did it set you back? (didn't see that anywhere on the webpage either)

At one time I looked into solor too, but electric here is so cheep and stable that the cost didn't pencel out.

You better hurry while you have gas to do it

I'm hoping for the day when there is more than ONE publicly accessible E85 station in all of California. (pretty pathetic eh?). I have a Flex Fuel Vehicle but no E85 to run it on. The day a local station starts carrying it, I'll be there. It is stupid we haven't really started switching over already. Look at Brazil, like over half their cars run on E85 on a regular basis.
