Energy Raisers

Back in the day communities used to come together to help raise a barn. Now we have communities helping each other install solar panels - I love this! Check out the article in the Globe today and look at the amazing cost savings (see excerpt below).

"By eliminating labor costs, the New Hampshire group has been able to reduce the price from more than $10,000 for a conventionally installed system to as little as $3,000, organizers of the group say. Federal tax credits and local company rebates - such as those available in New Hampshire - can reduce the price even further, to as low as about $1,500, they say." - May 8, 2008 Boston Globe.
