Solar City (company specializing on "free" solar panels installation) partners with Google inc. to provide inexpensive solar PV options to homeowners across US. With cost of solar panels (especially those imported from China) dropped by almost half in recent years, solar photovoltaic systems are becoming ever more affordable and widespread. Now you can have them installed on the roof of your home (assuming it meets production / efficiency requirements) free of charge. In return companies like Solar City, AP Solar and others will sell you electric power at a discounted rate. However you will not own these solar panels. You can also go the traditional route and pay for new solar panels out of pocket - with generous state rebates, federal tax credits and low cost of panels, having your own solar pv system is now in reach for most homeowners. You can use Solar Prices Calculator to estimate cost of your solar panels: www.solar-calcualtor.org
