      <![CDATA[Kinda funny. Chinese are dumping solar panels on the worldwide market, Hoku in Idaho now bankrupt after investing hundreds of millions in a boondoggle of a polysilicon plant, and all the while North Dakota is pumping more oil than Texas.<br>
<br>
For years I heard that all we needed to make solar, wind, and other renewables work was high oil and nat gas prices.

      <![CDATA[So, while we're computing payback, especially if you paid the whole cost instead of using the grant of other people's money and other people's taxes, should we also think about what the solar panels will add to the cost of replacing a roof, which in many cases is done every 20 years? Or more often if damaged in a hail or wind storm or a tree (we have lots of those) falling on a house?<br>
Awhile back I read an article that claimed solar panels are not covered under regular homeowner's insurance.

      <![CDATA[I just had a new roof put on and have looked into solar panels. But without the Northwestern grant it just won't work as the cost is still too high with a very long pay back period.
