Your Questions About Why Solar Panels So Expensive

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Steven asks…

Why doesn’t solar power count as “Free Energy”?

Firstly, I just want to mention that I am well aware that ‘Free Energy’ is only a concept and that no actual device known to man is capable of producing or harnessing free energy. My critical thinking faculties are in fine order, and I am well aware of James Randi – so please, no “free energy doesn’t exist retard” answers. I am only interested in the concept of free energy, not in debating whether or not it exists.

Now, to my question: Why isn’t solar energy (when absorbed by solar panels) considered to be ‘free energy’?

Every proposal for a free energy device I’ve seen seems to involve some kind of equipment (often equipment that is quite expensive and cumbersome for something that doesn’t even work), so I just don’t see much of a difference between these types of technology and solar panels – except that solar panels actually work. So what is it exactly that makes something Free Energy?

Henry Dover answers:

Perhaps you are thinking of the thermodynamics concept of free energy (see the reference). Otherwise, it depends on who’s counting and what they are counting. For photovoltaic and hydroelectric energy, there’s no direct operating or fuel cost, but there is a capital cost for the equipment and infrastructure. You could even say petroleum is free, since we don’t need to pay God for the oil.

If this doesn’t help, tell us who is setting this standard and what they consider free energy.

Mark asks…

Why are alternative engery sources NOT being provided on a bigger level in America?

We have lots of technology.. Whats the deal.?. I want some solar panels, but they are still so expensive I will have to save up for them.. I would rather get solar panels than a new car.

Henry Dover answers:

For advantages/disadvantages: Weighing up the advantages and disadvantages is one of the best ways of deciding whether solar power is the best fit for your home.

For solar panels: I did a lot of research before I found a tutorial which was really helpful, it helps calculate your solar needs and sets everything out for construction step by step.
