Is your House/Area good for Solar Power?

[Malice]

I have been pondering the idea of getting Solar Power added to the house (of course I dont think my Home Owners Association would allow all the mirrors or photo-voltaic sheets on my roof)

Is your area good for Solar Power?
Here is a great LINK

My Areas solar rating is:
Good (4.989 kWh/sq-m/day)

and the estimates to pay 50% of my electric bill would cost me about $162,000

That is a little steep, how about you?

Not really, summers probably but do get alot of cloudy days

Houston gets quite a bit of clouds also...hence its only in the GOOD range...

Perhaps they call them something like God Ray Catchers to make it more Amish

Vegas has a huge solar farm, but its not visible from the main strip.
