Number of Americans using solar power expected to more than triple by 2030 By Megan Cerullo Solar panel installations are on the rise
More Americans are tapping into the power of the sun to provide electricity for their homes, as the cost to go solar continues to drop.
Massachusetts homeowner Peter Samsel recently installed solar panels on his roof in an effort to help the environment. I want it to be a proven technology and now it is, he told CBS News correspondent Chris Martinez.
Going solar converting energy from the sun into electrical energy cost Martinez $21,000 after tax credits and rebates.
Tesla Solar Roof Even Removes Snow?!
Updated: Feb 22, 2021 at 6:25pm ET ++ It seems it will be able to remove the snow quickly and start generating electricity again.
The Tesla Solar Roof does not cease to amaze us. It s not only a groundbreaking photovoltaic product that might completely change the solar industry, but it has even some neat abilities like self-clearing of snow (at least in some circumstances).
In a very interesting video, Jason Lassen showed recently what happens when the snow falls on the Solar Roof (on his home under construction in Wisconsin) and how quickly it gets the snow off the roof.
