WUT?! Unpossible! We were promised.
I know a couple people and businesses who put the solar panels on their property.
Buyers remorse is an understatement.
LOL! Poor quality Indian workmanship? Thankfully this doesn't spill over into their programming skills. We'd all be in trouble!
Solar energy is a joke. Even these little flashlights and radios that are suppose to recharge their battery with solar...... junk.
I remember reading that birds get fried on solar panels, since they nistake them for water and try to land on them.
Between solar and wind power, we might be able to seriously deplete the population of noisy little feather balls.
We were promised flying cars, too.
Here in MA, forests are being clear-cut for solar panel farms on the ground. Drive anywhere in MA and you’ll see them.
Nothing wrong with that, I guess. But with all this additional solar power supply online, one would think one’s electrical bill would go down...
...now I’m getting a “solar power surcharge” on my bill.
What a SCAM.
I watched a tv show where they were analyzing unusual video clips.
There was one clip where a camera caught puffs of smoke appearing magically in the air.
Their analysis showed that the puffs of smoke were actually birds flying into the path of a solar collector.
Poof!
but, but, but we have only 11 and a half years left to convert to 100% solar and wind or everyone on planet earth will be dead ...
It should be a requirement that any company purporting to produce “green” technology do so using only green inputs. No diesel mined iron, no diesel electric transport, no coke fired blast furnaces, no fossil powered electricity- NONE! If you call it “green” it can’t be the last inch green, it must be the whole mile green.
And solar cells actually contribute to global warming. They do this because they absorb light that otherwise might have been reflected off the planets surface. IE - they decrease the planets albedo.
Snake Oil for your Roof ,LOL
Just wait until disposal time rolls around. Have to get special permits and a haz mat team to uninstall the stuff? And where ya gonna put it? The ocean?
Putting solar panels up, at least in most of the country, is like buying a Tesla. You don’t buy them to ‘save the planet’, you buy them to HOLD YOUR NOSE UP at the others, at your socials.
I just bought a set of lunar panels from a nice Nigerian company. Should be arriving any day now.
We are real estate appraisers. We have had actual cost data, actual return and electric costs. The actual return in the market, as well as capitalized return on investment, maybe 50% of costs.
The Sun destroys the plastic bits and makes the panels fail
One thing we never hear about WRT solar is the constant tending the solar panels require.
The roof panels must be kept clear of dirt & debris.
Hail storms are lethal.
So, a salesman convinces you solar will save you money.
Now you’re 80 years old, climbing a ladder every week
to clean your solar panels.
Or paying someone to do it.
A guy once tried to sell me a composting toilet. Supposedly saves water. Needs a tractor to clean it & a pit FAR from your house & water well to dump the stuff.

But think of all the grateful solar panel makers (AKA major donors to leftist globalist causes). We deplorable peasants need to learn our place and our DemocRAT betters have been tasked to do that.
