Joe,
I am currently installing a 6kw photo voltaic system and I have already
installed a solar hot water heater.
I am also trying to "spread the word" here but I am beginning to get
strange looks. I am borrowing money, while it is cheap, (inflation
spiral) to pay for these items. It is strange that I live in a "desert"
in Arizona and so little effort is being put into solar energy.
People simply don't believe or want to here you. Classic "denial" symptoms.
Only 2 companies in the Phoenix area are licensed and bonded to install
solar cell power systems.
Only 4 in the entire state! This is incredible.
None of the hardware they are installing is built in the USA. We may get
so far
"behind the power curve", literally, that we can not afford the hardware
needed to reduce energy consumption (inflation and unemployement spirals!).
I am very worried for my children!!
