Solar Power in TV
Getting SECO involved is a good idea. With the expanding number of homes here they are going to need to keep adding to their capacity, and doing so with the help of their current customers is a win-win situation. They should have more clout in getting grants than we as individuals, and surely the "powers that be" would rather see Florida use its existing potential rather than just build another power station?
Also, getting the media involved should give this project a leg up. They like a 'feel good' story about individuals getting together to solve a problem, rather than leaving it to the corporate world.
It may be that financially it doesn't make things cheaper for us, but there are probably enough green people in TV who would support the project anyway - count me in, for a start. Anyone who doesn't want to isn't being forced to - we just need to reach a critical mass to get things started.
Comments from those who have already gone the solar route would be useful. What have been your experiences in terms of costs and savings? Have you been able to sell back excess power to SECO?
Thank you
