Fine, Mr. Johnson......... but one question: who pays for "grants and
rebates"? You don't pick them from the grant and rebate garden.

Greg Reinhart is mistaken. Solar technology pays for itself in a few
years,
especially when we use grants and rebates and especially when energy
prices
will b skyrocketing as oil is now and especially with the new intertie
inverters and high efficiency modules that are now on the market. He is
probably
thinking what a system would have cost eight years ago when grid tie
technology
was not available and neither were grants and rebates. Solar energy like
wind
energy is now a no brainer, a great investment and most important it
doesn't
produce greenhouse gasses and mercury which will be devastating for
Minnesota
with its 11,000 lakes, rivers and streams. Minnesota could be a leader.
The
energy bill that was just passed is an abomination with windfalls going to
the oil and coal industry, the worst possible place it could go.
