Only for the idle rich on Rouses Point. The climate is not warming we are entering the Saunder minimum and NYS has some of the highest electric rates in the nation. Put up 20 solar panels and get a reliable 10watts of power on a cloudy day. I am off to sit on my pile of coal of 800 million btu and plan the winter.
