We still have more than enough empty roof space in suburbia to power everything for everyone and more for $0 (after installation).

- vinceguidry 2y agoThe real move here is to roll them out in fields mostly unusable for other purposes. These days, you can put up an entire field installation in a day or two. Getting them onto roofs requires a whole lot more effort for a whole lot less capacity.
