It is great to see articles like this. You need to run more, we are all looking for ways to save money, and help the environment. I think we can all use the information. Thanks for a good job.

Photovoltaic cells are not. Their production is a dirty process that results in toxic by-products, and the cells themselves contain cadmium and cannot be put in a landfill. Electricity from them is so expensive, few can afford them, meaning they are a rich person's luxury unsuitable to address most of the world's electrical needs.
