My favorite alternative energy. I think this has the potential to completely replace electricity created by fossil fuels.
Looks as 2 things are possible to replace the fossil fuel power grids:
1) individual self sufficient structures like putting solar on your homes.
or
2) Solar fields that tie back to the electric companies who provide you solar power via the traditional service electric lines.
Right now with the price of oil we are about 20% away from it being a break even cost with solar. Little more oil price.. or a little more economies of scale or technology improvements and you will see the solar sector completely take over.
