Isn’t it interesting when people say PV is “too dear”. The same people don’t worry about spending a large amount of money on oversized homes they don’t need, or over-sized 4WD SUV’s they drive around the suburbs.
I like the saying “Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.” Thank you for encouraging those who value the environment and their children’s future above material ‘things’.
