Free solar panels? Don't get fooled
You’ve probably seen the ads on TV and online, that you may qualify for free solar panels. One elderly Houston couple took the bait and then called KPRC 2 Investigator Amy Davis when they realized they’d been hooked, tricked into paying tens of thousands of dollars for those so-called free panels.

The Failure of America's $1 Billion Solar Farm
The Crescent Dunes Solar Energy Project was proposed back in 2011, and intended on meeting Nevada's rising demand for electricity to power 75,000 homes throughout the state. While the project was funded by the US Department of Energy and completed in 2015, it faced a number of challenges in the years afterward. This was mainly because of the new form of Solar Technology it was using, which was the first of its kind in the United States.
This new technology would ultimately lead the the failure of this $1 Billion dollar facility, which went bankrupt in 2020. But even as the future of this project looked uncertain, The US Buereu of Reclamation stated that the project had resumed full operation in July of 2021, due to increased demand for electricity throughout the state.

How solar energy got so cheap
Cheap solar is a policy success story.
Subscribe and turn on notifications 🔔 so you don't miss any videos: http://goo.gl/0bsAjO
Since 2009, the price of solar energy has come down by 90 percent. That’s no accident. It’s the result of policy interventions from the US to Germany to China.
As policy analyst Gregory Nemet puts it, “No one country is responsible. It was a relay race rather than a competition.” The global flow of knowledge, people, technology, and policy helped bring down the price per watt from more than $100 in 1976 to less than $0.50 today, according to this analysis from the folks at Our World in Data. https://ourworldindata.org/cheap-renewables-growth

I-Team: Hidden cameras reveal dark side of solar power
By Randy Travis
Published May 16, 2022
DOUGLASVILLE, Ga - A hidden camera FOX 5 I-Team investigation takes the shine off some big promises made to Georgia homeowners about solar power.
With rising energy prices, you may be paying closer attention to those ubiquitous ads on social media:
"The government will cover the cost to install solar."
"Get paid to go solar!"
"Reduce or even eliminate your electric bill by using solar energy."
Amie and Nathan Tatro of Lafayette saw the same ads. So they signed a contract with Power Home Solar -- now Pink Energy -- to outfit their home with solar panels, a deal that cost $91,000 with monthly installments over 25 years.
"It’s not turned out to be what was promised," Amie admitted. "Almost everything he said turned out not to be true."

Why is the West so desperate to compete with China's solar sector? | Transforming Business
China controls the majority of the global manufacturing process for solar energy – a stark contrast to its position 15 years ago, when Europe was the sector's unchallenged leader. The reason? A heavily subsidized industry and lots of government financing. As well as a sharp decline in costs for consumers. But Western nations decry an unfair market advantage. One Swiss solar panel maker is determined to stay competitive, by moving its manufacturing from Germany to the U.S. -- where energy prices are lower and they can tap into incentives offered under the Inflation Reduction Act. Do they stand a chance? And is it so bad if China dominates the market?

Today, crystalline silicon makes about 90% of all solar panels produced worldwide, and the market is expanding at a rate of roughly 30% annually. As mentioned Tesla made a ground-breaking discovery about a material that is less expensive, lighter, and easier to manufacture? It's a cheap solution that produces powerful cells. Ferroelectric crystals are solar cells that are so thin that they may power an entire house. The cost of crucial components, primarily polysilicon for solar panels, has reached an all-time high due to excessive demand and manufacturing delays. The most costly grade of polysilicon now costs 40.62 cents per kilogram, which is higher than the previous high of 40.34 cents from the previous year.
The silicon metal is purified to 99.999 percent purity before being used to manufacture polysilicon. To keep the silicon from crystallizing where the silicon rods are developing at the center of the reactor, the reactor walls must be kept cold. Tesla had to look for a silicon substitute since maintaining that temperature differential required a lot of energy. Due to a novel invention involving the arrangement of thin layers of the materials, the energy output of ferroelectric crystals in solar cells can be enhanced by a factor of 1,000.
Ferroelectric crystals are distinct from traditional silicon cells in that the PV effect can be produced without a PN Junction. In a nutshell, there is no need to add layers of cells that are positively and negatively doped. The alteration, according to the researchers, might make it simpler to construct solar panels. This revolutionary cell can be made without the need to mine the Earth for raw materials. Researchers employ ferroelectrics like barium titanate, a mixed oxide consisting of barium and titanium, since it is any material with a crystalline structure. Costs are greatly decreased as a result.
Tesla does not need to spend a lot of money on highly skilled labour or sophisticated equipment to support production.
As a result, it's projected that these panels could cost up to 10 times less per watt than contemporary commercial silicon solar panels. Before the federal solar tax credit, you may anticipate Tesla solar panels to cost roughly 2.21 cents per Watt. However, the price per watt of this ferroelectric panel is merely 22 cents.
Up until recently, silicon solar panel costs were a constant concern. Although this new Tesla invention is an excellent option for individuals who cannot afford to buy them, one has to wonder how much energy it can genuinely produce given the low price.

Elon Musk Just LAUNCHED A New Solar Panel That Will Blow Your Mind!
The solar sector is in a competitive battle to expand quickly. Elon Musk recently unveiled an amazing power cell that has never been seen before. This ground-breaking technology has lower costs and offers an infinite supply of energy. As you may already be aware, the black and copper solar panel that can be found on residential rooftops and solar farms that were created and produced in America in 1950 is the conventional silicon photovoltaic solar cell. But, Tesla just launched a new solar power cell that will blow your mind. What exactly is it made of? Let’s find out!
Hello everyone! Welcome back to Elon Musk Evolution, where we bring you the most recent news about Elon Musk and his multi billion-dollar companies, space news and the latest science and technology.
