Solar PV vs. Everything Else. A large number of our potential clients can’t use PV. Restrictive net-metering environments, shading, and other considerations make it unworkable. What do we offer them instead?

DC systems from NextekPower.com, even though grid-connected, do not require net metering or utility interconnect agreements. Thin Film Panels and Solar Heating panels like the ones from SunMateSolarPanels.com don’t mind a litle shade. Some experts claim that Solar Hot Water is far superior, as a solution, than PV. Fiberoptic solar lighting is beginning to get some buzz as well. The discussion is happening here. Please add your comments.
