For people who want to learn more about the complexities in this topic, I highly suggest listening to the Energy Gang podcast[1]. A senior editor at Greentech Media, principal lobbyist at a huge energy lobby firm, and the founder of Sun Edison get together once a week to talk about at latest news. I work in the new energy industry, and everyone I know in this industry listens to this podcast.
For example, a few months ago, they talked extensively about how Hawaii's utility is basically falling apart since it can't find a way to compete with solar now that solar is at grid parity, and solar+storage is on the verge of reaching off-grid parity[2]. What happens when half of your customers simply leave? We're about to find out over the next few years.
Also, if you want to learn more about tech entrepreneurship in the solar, I recommend reaching out to the SfunCube[3].
