The premiums on that "property insurance"? Have ya priced it yet?

Just curious? What's the price of a "power inverter" for that set up?

How many square feet of solar panel are you going to use?

Not trying at all to criticize...just curious?

I guess you don't have enough wind to go that route...seems like
it would be cheaper than the solar....I have flown over quite a bit
of W.Texas...seen them windmills by the hundreds....had a cousin
who was selling them...most folks were not aware? That all the electricity
being generated was going to California and Florida....not Texas.
Good old T-bone Pickens.....

Yeah, I've heard of it.
Oh so you want someone else to pay for your misfortune, share the load so to speak? The concept is not new by any stretch of the imagination.

BUY all that solar stuff you can afford and borrow to buy some more. MAYBE, your investment will help those that produce it to figure out a way to make it better and cheaper. But WAIT!! Probably be better to let EVERYONE share the load with a bunch of OUR money that we didn't have a choice about donating to help build a government "mouse trap" for the sun's energy in the true LIBERAL American spirit. Eh Komrad?

all good questions, probably closer to answered around late March or early April, when I talk to the
potential vendors and contractors. i'll get back to you, but you are hitting the same list of questions
I have jotted down.

the above are the ravings of an idiot, one who clearly doesn't understand capitalism either.

The U.S. Government should not entertain any off shore defence contracts.

they'll still bat that contract around for another couple rounds, Fatman, so still time to put your money down.

where do these firms and others purchase their components from? You know, stuff like transistors, chips, boards, and the like?
