The output is not very high but cost is low. I will be looking into this for offsetting my pool pump power usage.

This looks like a step in the right direction. It will still take 16 years to break even (based on the estimates provided and assuming energy costs don't rise, which they will, so perhaps more like 10+ years). I think solar panels on every house is a complete no brainer but it is only going to happen once fossil fuels get more expensive.
Eh. Its inevitable. The economy will eventually transition. More efficient but higher costing energy sources will become available but will be better than the alternative once fossil fuel supply gets low. The New England ski industry has more to fear from climate change than higher costs. Skiing has always been a high price activity and people will pay to do it if they get hooked. Decrease snow in the metro areas or make it harder for the feeder hills to make snow, that would hurt the industry far more than higher prices. IMO.Just remember fossil fuels prices go up then everything goes up. Toursim would be highly affected. Ski slopes would be empty.
