Survey: If you could not install a solar panel on your house would you buy shares in a solar energy co-op?

In a number of communities the home owner associations don't allow solar panels on roofs because they think they blight the neighborhood. Other people live in apartments and can't have solar panels.





In addition would being able to use government tax credits, be an additional incentive to invest in a solar co-op?

If I was already committed to the idea of using solar to power my house then sure I would join a collective. I might even go that route anyway since that way you avoid doing the maintenance on the system yourself. That's worth $ to me to not have the hassle.





If you REALLY want them on your house get elected to the Board for your local community and change the CCR's so that solar panels are allowed. You just need to convince enough people it's a good idea. Democracy in action!





Tax credits for solar always make it more attractive, whether they be for the individual, the co-op or a major energy company.
