Can anyone give me an idea of the going sales price per watt range for an AC solar power system including top tier chinese panels and Enphase microinverter on a composite shingle roof in Texas? e-mail address gak0927@aol.com

Thanks so much, BS Solar! Glad I can help, and hope you continue to get more solar on roofs! For more solar marketing posts, check out my blog posts on RenewableEnergyWorld.com at http://www.renewableenergyworld.com/rea/u/SolarFred/blog.

Tor, I’ve really enjoyed your posts on SolarFred.com and SPR.com. I think your ideas on sales and marketing for solar installers are spot on and the companies you help will meet great success. Although we haven’t directly worked with you, our company has followed your posts and have incorporated a lot of the ideas you’ve talked about. Hopefully, as our business grows, we can contract your company for some personalized consulting. Great work so far!

GREAT web-site
I wonder if there is an info source that gives basic, obvious, installer info.
For instance, if there is a parapet surrounding flat roofs ( such as typical new mexico roofs,,,), that rule of thumb is 2 feet away from the edge to install solar panels…
Something that has basic installer/designer rules?????
Thanx guys… S. Fred— keep it up

Hey Guys, I’m looking to get into the solar field. I’m trying to find legit reviews on some schools/training that I’ve found. I see that Solar Fred mentions 2 in his bio. Are either/both of these worth the $$. Some of the schools aren’t cheep ($3400 for 6 days) while others offer for less (under $1000 for 5 days).
Can anyone help?

Not sure about fuel cells, but I do know that solar rebates are still on until funding runs out or December 31st, 2009, whichever comes first.
