2008 was a year of woes and worries for many Americans. With the real-estate market plummeting and all other resources going for at least double the normal rate, its no wonder the whole country is panicking and trying to get a hold on their financial investments. Financial advisors left and right are being laid off in record numbers, not because they give bad financial advise, we just have less control over our own agencies and the number game itself.
If we look at the sun as a global resource that we should all invest in - the numbers to prove its power is ridiculous. With an abundance of energy that we can harvest for thousands of years, the sun proves to be the best source of energy to tap.
Even with the use of natural gas, coal, etc… we are still maxing out our capacity no matter how many power plants we build. Giving each home the ability to access the energy of the sun is very vital to our survival, personally and financially.
Giving a portion of our paychecks to the utility companies everytime is more than frustrating, but the way the utility rates are right now, the obvious spikes in rate increases are drastic and should be constantly monitored. The solar community thrives on the success of PV systems that make your meter spin backwards! and help you cut down on all costs for your energy usage.
Despite the numbers from our suffering economy, California residents installed a record 158 megawatts of solar panels in 2008 alone. This proves that now, more than ever, is a great time to INVEST in a solar electrical system. Save on your electric bills! Cut down pollution! Stop being dependent on fossil fuels! Make a smart investment and get a great Return On Investment!
An article in the LA Times features an article about last year’s economy and the role of photovoltaic panels.
