If it were only ratepayers getting fleeced, the word “voters” wouldn’t be there. Ask T-Bone Pickins.
It’s simple: we all go into hibernation during the winter, like bears. Then, we’ll wake up in the spring, and there’ll be lots of clear skies and solar power.
My 82 year old dad was just scammed in a solar power scam yesterday. If you have elderly parents, alert them or keep an eye on them. I am so ticked off, they constantly come after him because of his age and his inability to become suspicious, he trusts everyone.
They cold called him yesterday and he invited the “salesman” to come immediately over who did, and told him the solar panels will cost nothing and it will drive his electric costs down 90%. So he gives the guy his social security number to “check his credit” Why if the panels cost nothing? And then he signed this contract. So now I’m up early trying to figure out this mess. I assume I have to call my lawyer see what protections he has.
You need to jump on it, many states have a 72 hour period to void contracts.Time period may vary with state.
Um, so what about Africa, The Mid East, Asia etc then? With their countless hours of heavy sunshine all year?
Minnesota is not the world.

I second you, the SEC is supposed to protect the consumer from a need be large monopolistically enabled service provider allowed to exist with certain government oversight.
The problem is the giverment and wokeness brainwashing.

Planning for a fulltime RV retirement, I have been looking into solar for mobile installations on a Class A/School bus. YOU CANNOT get enough panels on an RV and enough batteries IN an RV to reliably supply 100% on your energy needs. Which means you still need a generator to top off the batteries when you hit a stretch of “poor solar” days/locations. AND the cost of the panels and associated gear is prohibitively high.
Solar is an out-and-out scam.
Thanks!!!
Thanks. What if he (or myself) cant get anyone on the phone from this “company” to cancel? I might have my lawyer contact them
good post.
also explains why the corrupt USPTO (owned by CCP and
other rouge agencies/countries) will NOT EVER
allow clean energy systems.
There should be accountability here, too.
there’ll be lots of clear skies and solar power.

But at only 30% of rated capacity at best.
In sub-Saharan Africa the plan has been for decades to keep the various tribes at war and without much power, having to choose between having a single low wattage bulb lit or refrigerating medicine.
Have you been to sub Saharan Africa before?
I have and you are not right. As at now anyways.
Even under perfect conditions, the solar panels in use today can only convert a maximum of 30% of the sunlight that strikes a panel into electricity.
70% of the sun's energy is in wave lengths that cannot be converted to electricity by current technology.
Wind isn’t much better. There when you don’t need it, and not there when you do need it. And like solar, it has to be backed up by something reliable - like gas or coal.
Mostly gas now days, since our overlords have deemed coal to be public enemy #1.
