Abstract
SOlar Power has been Expanding rapidly in recent years, growing at an annual rate of 40%. The cost per kilwatthour of solar voltaic systems has also been dropping while electricity generated from fossil fuels is becoming more expensive, and, at this point in time, it is difficult to predict when the two might reach equality. Some studies suggest that generation from solar sources could grow to 10% of the U.S.
