You may call them friends, but the Big Energy companies are enemies of solar. BE is planning new nukes! They are building gas burners. Struggling to keep their coal plants burning.

If they were friends of solar they would be buying all the over-capacity and installing it. Never been cheaper. Never been easier. Never been a better time. What are they waiting for?

But maybe your idea of 'friends' is not the same as mine?
