The problem with solar is that in most cases, by the time you break even the panels need to be replaced.
Residential solar linked to the grid is just a scam to raise energy prices, forcing more people into solar that the power company gets massive subsidies for installing.
Crediting people retail rates for solar generation into the grid costs far more than it produces.
I wouldn't call becoming less efficient, "failing," but these numbers are interesting. And every time I see a big solar installation, I think about how much #silver there is in the panels, how much #copper was used to wire them…
