Us old-timers remember the dismemberment of the then big ARCO Solar grid-tie project down in So. CAL. In the 1980s and the parting out of that project in dribs and drabs for years.
I was wondering recently with all these ever so big and getting bigger grid-tie projects sprouting like mushrooms across the developed world: why did ARCO Solar and the utility (PG&E?) scrap the whole thing after a relatively short period of time? Causes me to wonder about the fate of so many of the mammoth projects now going in as far as what's going to happen when the owner-investors likely bail, having made their handsome ROIs, after the tax credits and MACRS depreciation plays out. Thanks, marco
