Solar Power - rapidly approaching the tipping point.

The cost of Solar Power has been plummeting - Solar development in many areas is outstripping Moore's Law and in cost per unit, there is now almost parity between solar power and fossil fuels.

We will soon - maybe only in a matter of months,be reaching a point where bulk purchased solar power infrastructure is cheaper per watt than any other current electricity generation method.

The Solar industry will not need grants and subsidies to compete, any more than the digital camera industry needed subsidies to compete against film cameras. The same holds true for electric vehicles, and advanced battery technology.
