As 2014 winds down, consider some of these other milestones weve achieved as an industry so far: · Solar energy is now generating enough clean, reliable and affordable electricity to effectively power 3.5 million American homes. · Nearly 600,000 U.S. home and businesses have gone solar. · Solar has made up 36% of new electric generating capacity in the U.S. so far this year. · The U.S. solar industry now reduces annual carbon emissions by nearly 20 million metric tons, which is the equivalent of taking 4.3 million cars off the road, or not burning more than 20 billion pounds of coal. to anyone who says it cannot be done, call me on your 20 year old cell phone or email me with your 25 year old computer.
