    sigh - more brain dead thinking here...

    Not one word (that I could see) in the promotional web pages about doing conservation, efficiency upgrades and SDHW first. Picking the hardest to reach, most expensive fruit first is a stupid, low EROEI, unsustainable path, especially when it is subsidized by public taxes.

    Solar PV is very energy intensive to make. With conservation (I know this is a bad word here in 'murica), efficiency upgrades, and solar hot water most homes could reduce the size of PV system needed by an easy 50%. Putting in gigantic systems to compensate for waste and unconscious consumption is more of the same brain dead thinking that has us facing the mess we are.

    Now that the days of cheap energy are behind us, clearly there is no value in subsidizing any kind of waste.

    Please, lets put the cart behind the horse.
