OAE Newswire - Portland, OR -- Photovoltaic manufacturing has long been a focal point of expensive pricing and difficult Return On Investment (ROI) numbers. However, recent manufacturing plants have been constructed throughout China, Russia, Italy, and Taiwan. This is driving down the prize of solar cells on a per kilowatt basis.

"If we can get the price down to a point where ROI is 5 years or less, we will be able to market this to the masses, "said Jeff Holmes of Holmes Engineering. "Right now, it takes 10 years for ROI."

In China, 830 megawatt power grid was constructed for $25 million through private investors.

"This worked out to be roughly $25,000.00 for each consumer," said West Arkeen, Manager of Arkeen Investments."

To undergo this effort in the United States would require the conversion of the entire State of Nevada into a solar energy array. It would also require $3,125,000,000,000 dollars. (3.1 Quadrillion Dollars)

However, it would our the entire United States of America with zero emissions. The vision of converting the entire state of Nevada into a solar energy array has long been the vision of green activists and engineers alike.
