Common Solar Myths…
• Solyndra means bankruptcy for the entire industry…• Different technology
which couldn’t compete
• My lights will go out if it’s cloudy!• 98% Grid – tied
• Solar is a fad…• FedEx, UPS, eBay, Hewlett
Packard Google, Apple and the U.S. Air Force
Nellis Air Force Base 14 MW!!!

Solar Saves Us All Money!• Energy prices are most expensive when demand is highest
June – September 2pm – 7pm
• Solar energy production is highest during these peak demand times
• Solar reduces customer demand for the utility’s peak (most expensive) power which makes energy less expensive for all ratepayers

NEW NUKE IS GOING TO BE FAR MORE EXPENSIVE THAN SOLAR . . . FOR FAR LONGER . . .
Nuclear Power is ‘Base Load’ delivered for approximately $.04 per kWh
Vogtle 3&4 - $14,000,000,000 – 2,200 MW – 10+ Years to Build
