The prices continue to fall daily for installing solar systems, and since the 1950’s, the price has dropped to more than 500 times cheaper. A few years ago a solar system costs about the same amount of money as a car, now they are as affordable as a television set.
MYTH: Residential solar systems are not making a real difference in helping change things environment for the world.
FACT: Residential solar systems are helping to decrease harmful energy needs.
