U.S. Southeast For Solar

Recommended Posts

The region was long the country’s smallest solar market, in part because state regulators argued it was just too expensive. Now that prices have come down sharply, area utilities are embracing power from the sun.
A few facts:
- Florida replaced an expensive coal-fired plant with cheap solar power
 -Georgia to develop region's biggest solar farm
 -South Carolina bails on $20 billion nuke plant, eyes renewables

And that's the way it should be done, fiscally responsible.  Not by killing jobs, and with crushing debt and taxes.
