I rarely look at the statistics that Blogger offers up regarding where traffic is coming from and going to. However, I had a peek tonight for the first time in months.
One of the top search terms bringing people to this blog is "hitler kills tinky winky".
The Internet - teaching you something new and disturbing about people every day.

Slow day eh BOAB?
Does your bike have puncture?
You don't seem to check old posts so I thought I would bring your attention to a serious flaw in your previous analysis of solar power.
You stated that a 5kw system costs $50,000, and then proceeded to add installation, import and finance onto that. If you took a look around at local companies you will see that is patently ridiculous.

Have 5kw systems for $11,800 which includes installation.

Has 2.6kw systems which cost $8,600 or ~$17,000 for 5kw and that includes installation and 2.5 years interest free finance.
Considering local systems are consistently about 1/4 to 1/3 of your guesstimates (and falling fast ~60% drop in price over last 12 months) repeating your numbers starts to make solar a hell of a lot more attractive than you made it seem.

What's a 'rebate'?
Cheers
The rebate is designed to assist a technology moving through its infancy get over the hump until technological improvements and economies of scale help it reach a point where it is fully competitive unassisted, a point which solar is rapidly approaching if it hasn't reached it already . For example the 4.56 kw from energybank.com has a full pre-rebate cost of $15,965 a rebate of $4,165 to give the final price of $11,800. I'd be more than happy for the numbers to be rerun with the pre-rebate price as $16,000 is still a hell of a lot less than the $50,000 used in the analysis of solar costs by boy on a bike
chain busted?
