  1. Say thank you to Chairman Xi everyone. Generous subsidies from chinese taxpayers are funding massive PV growth in developed countries.

  2. A huge percentage of energy use all traces back to solar light energy, including fossil fuels like coal and oil. Makes sense to cut out the middle man and harness it directly now that it’s feasible to do so

    They taught us about this in the 1970s. If the fossil fuel industry hadn’t rigged the game at every step of the way, the entire planet would’ve been carbon neutral already.

  4. Thanks to the Chinese for dumping this technology… now let them do the same with EVs…

  5. It’s so efficient, the government is taxing homeowners and electric vehicles for free electricity

    Except in California where the politicians let the power companies lobby and win to make solar much less affordable
