Silver demand from solar rising
Silver zealots hype industrial demand ... silver demand from solar panels is ramping up
Small solar is solar panels installed on tops ... this is real (not hype) new silver industrial demand
Inflation in the last 'government' report included a included a ONE MONTH 1.7% jump in the rates consumers pay for electricity ... small solar becomes more attractive with rate increases , ie Los Angeles's electric utility increased last year and wants 5% more next year
"....You’ve got a large amount of manufacturing capacity coming on line in China, you’re seeing more from the U.S. and you’re seeing more suppliers focusing on the U.S. market, giving installers greater choice, and putting some price pressure on solar systems.”...The lower prices came as total U.S. solar installations increased by 66% to 252 megawatts in the first quarter, the GTM study said. All told, U.S. solar power provides about 0.2% of the U.S.’s electric generation,
Silver demand will most likely increase as nuke energy retreats because solar panels currently use about 71% of an ounce of silver for each 200 typical solar panel. My own home has 30 solar panels.
"...Panel makers consume about 11 percent of the world’s supply of silver ... uses 0.10 grams of silver for each watt of generating capacity ... 20 grams in a 200-watt panel ... accelerating R&D to reduce silver content ... strong module makers will get stronger ..." www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-06-22/silver-surge-makes-headwind-for-solar-in-fossil-fuel-rivalry.html
Silver industrial demand for solar panels will ramp up in India (70% of 1 ounce of silver per panel)
Government fails.
Solar thrives.
Biggish Solar will balloon in India along with Small Solar as India's corrupt electical system provides first for financial elites, corporations and not at all for "...300 million Indians — a quarter of the 1.2 billion population — who have no access to electricity at home ..." some of which will manage to get Solar panels with government help or marriage "... Solar panels are becoming a must-have luxury item on dowry lists ..."
Money talks with Small Solar in India "...single-panel solar systems goes for about $360, the same or less than a year's supply of black-market kerosene. And government subsidies mean customers actually pay less than $300 ... " news.yahoo.com/indias-rural-poor-power-grid-solar-093045321.html
Silver demand (70% of 1 ounce of silver per panel) in America's government and individuals ramped up:
Small Solar vs Smallish Solar vs Big Solar
Big Solar's big score: Big solar got $4.5 Billion today from the federal government's loan guarantees. $4.5B is real money compared to Smallish Solar's $.28B at Google and Small Solar home systems at $.000000004 Billion each. www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-06-30/first-solar-wins-4-5-billion-in-loan-guarantees-from-u-s-.html
Big Solar dominates the electrical production in California with the CA state mandate of 33% from alternative electrical generation in the near future SIGNED INTO LAW. ...
Enter Google via SolarCity .... Smallish solar: $280M Google roof top panel funding
$280 million in financing from Google will create lots of leases and roof top solar panel installations. The residents better look closely at the deal with SolarCity/Google...I have no information but the 'Devil is in the Details' ...
