on The Switch: Solar Power

My wife and I live in a 1920'sl bungalow in NE Portland and have done conservation measures and had solar PV panels installed using Energy Trust incentives.  Now, with a 4 Kw system, over the course of a year, we sell back more electricity to the power company than we use.  The utility intertie is effortless, there is no maintenence, and there are lots of roofs with good sun exposure in Portland.  We can do this, Oregon is a great place for solar, the technology is here and the subsidies are in place.
