The appeal of solar energy is that its fuel (the sun) is free, it is sustainable, it does not pollute, it is quiet, it can be incorporated into architectural designs, it is scalable to any desired size, it produces high quality power, and it is cost competitive in many areas of the US where local electric utility rates are high. PV system costs have plummeted in the last two years and new financing instruments are available to make buying solar power easier and affordable. For example, with a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), a developer will design, finance, procure, and install a system and sell the power to a customer for less than what the utility charges. The buyer gets the benefit of solar energy for a net savings with no investment of his own money. There are other financial instruments, like leasing agreements, loans paid back over time through real estate taxes, state and local utility rebates, and tax incentives.
