   With an increasing amount of consumers choosing to implement solar panels that feed energy solely to their home and home batteries, grid defection has continued to grow. As the number of people of grid increases, the cost of the grid will be spread across fewer consumers making, "the incentive to go off-grid only grow". [12]

6. Solar power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_power

   Photovoltaics (PV) were initially solely used as a source of electricity for small and medium-sized applications, from the calculator powered by a single solar cell to remote homes powered by an off-grid rooftop PV system. Commercial concentrated solar power plants were first developed in the 1980s. Since then, as the cost of solar panels has ...
