Re: [Electrical] Utilities want to charge for Solar Power

Here's another angle on Solar Panels on a roof that I bet very few consider

I wonder how big a deal it really is.

Here they don't use raised panels. They use photovoltaic shingles. I'd imagine they cost a bit more but look way better. You can treat them just like any other roofing material.

No raised panels in your area? Surely everyone with solar doesn't have these high priced devices as they are relatively new

Solar shingles aren't really that new; I first laid hands on them some 15 years ago or so. For whatever reasons they have just never really taken off like they should have, but now all of a sudden they're getting popular.
