Sonia Said:

solar panel question?

We Answered:

Depends on the panel. On the order of 10% perhaps depending on you you measure it.

More importantly, what they don't tell you is that more energy is consumed in the mining of necessary materials and the manufacturing process than one of the silly things can produce in a lifetime.

Not that there isn't a place for solar panels. It just isn't a smart way to produce energy in large quantities just yet.
