47. The thing is that you would be helping out your local power company

You would be selling your excess power back to your local power company at exceedingly low prices. Win-win for both you and the power company. They get cheap electricity and you lower your electric bills.

Besides, with lower demand for power, there should be a corresponding drop in electric prices.

And with the rise of thin film photovoltaic solar panels, even you, with your small row house, could afford to put up a couple of kilowatts worth of solar panels.
