In recent years, advances made in manufacturing technology have led to a sharp reduction in the price of solar power systems. Within a few years, I believe that a large percentage of the population will be installing solar panels on their own homes to drastically reduce or eliminate their dependence on utility supplied power. I foresee the eventual creation of a “World Wide Power Web”, where homeowners everywhere, will tie their home-generated power into utilities, drastically reducing the need for large electrical generating stations. This will be especially true in areas of the U.S, (and world) that are blessed with a lot of sunshine.
