a good link here about solar panels, there is a scheme in certain housing associations were they put solar panels on your council roof and your bills are cheaper and any power left over the council sell back to the grid, I know as fact that my nephew who lives in knowsley (outskirts of Liverpool) pays £5 per week on his electricity with the solar panels on his roof, were as mine is 3/4 times more money, I think for private homes to buy the panels it is around £12k or more may be a lot but will save you in the long run with the escalating energy bills.

They're a great idea Franky, and ideally all new homes should be built with solar panels. They do seem very expensive to retrofit though I guess the price would come down if they became more popular.

I said awhile back this should be policy on all houses and public buildings unless publicly listed instead of silly windmills that don't work.

There is a solar panel promotion scheme on offer from the government where I live.
Supposedly they help with the initial expenses by brokering a deal with companies and thus allowing for monthly payments.
They have been found to heavily subsidize specific companies and only those are eligible for the scheme.
With a little bit of research I found out that it is cheaper to buy them from China (where most of them are produced anyway), have them loaded in a container and shipped anywhere in the world. No monthly payments option though.
Having said that, the energy required for the production of the solar cells and solar panels, along with the carbon based photon-conductive materials, is never recuperated during their lifetime.
As a technology, it is vastly more effective than combustion engines for the production of energy, as they have no moving parts so there is no loss of energy due to friction.
They however, like most technologies, cannot overcome the barrier of the energy preservation principle.
I think we should be looking at over-unity machines for electric energy solutions.
There are so many design plans already available and they don't cost as much as most would think to produce.
