    For the 'good news' file

    Installed price of solar photovoltaic systems in US continues to decline at rapid pace

    Related, I have seen aerial photos of large PV installations in New Jersey where only 'a relatively small number' of the panels were pulled off by wind during the storm. Fair enough, but that was not a very strong wind storm. The lifting force increases with cube of wind speed, something like that.

    So if you live in a high-wind-risk zone (Columbia CIESIN has maps) please attach your PV with the maximum number of bolts. Thanks.
