		<description>In the residential solar market, prices are definitely declining for two reasons.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;1) Lower solar panel and product costs as new technology and capacity hits the market. &lt;br&gt;2) The slow economy is driving solar installers to reduce prices to maintain consumer sign-ups. Consumer demand is at an all time high, but affordability is not. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Combined with robust federal tax credits and state/local solar power rebates, there has never been a better time to go solar for your home or business.  If you want to do something about this today, then visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://FreeCleanSolar.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;FreeCleanSolar.com&lt;/a&gt; to search a nationwide network of 500 local solar installers. You can also find information about state solar rebates, federal tax credits, solar financing and leasing, system costs and the benefits of going solar.  The bottom line is that many homeowners and business owners can afford solar power today.</description>

		<description>Definitely a boon for solar independent power producers, micro utilities and the supply chain as a whole for related enterprises. &lt;br&gt;But what were your feelings on the conference? Sessions? The attendess? The industry? &lt;br&gt;Just curious about the objective perspective of the reporter.</description>
