$1 / watt solar cells

AVA Solar?s proprietary technology enables the production of PV modules at a current cost below $1 / watt, significantly reducing the cost of generating solar electricity. Production capacity can be scaled rapidly to meet the fast growing demand for solar energy.

Now all we need is for EEStor to deliver

Well, in my case I also need that our feckin government passes a law allowing for two way metering in Chile.

I think that even Joe Newmann will succeed getting his "OU" technology to the market before than Chilean government aproves a law that will end with the monopoly of big electric companies.

We still have not law for eolic energy production, and there is only a couple of experimental turbines installed.

Some times, all you need is less bureaucrats and politics for things to solve themselves.

As I understand it, Germany pays 46 cents or more per kwhr produced from solar under their green program.

We would like to install a solar system 10 kwatt in Germany and are looking for a person with computer that can act as a translator between us and possible interested parties that want to rent their land &/or roof top for solar installations.

If you are interested, please send your back ground and wages per hour to      beenergy at telusplanet.net

Don't confuse the price per watt which relates to the initial price of the cells, with the price per kWh, which relates to output power. I believe that a $1 per watt initial cost will equate to around 10 cents a kWh, which is around what most of us currently pay here in the U.S. for our often non-green electricity off the grid. So $1 per watt makes it a very wise choice to consider your own home power system.

Here is a company with an ingenious little system that utilises not solar electric cells, but rather solar hot water heating units. The solar panels produce hot water which is pumped to a hydrogen compressor, that compresses a gas that is then expanded in a hydraulic motor-generator set that produces electricity....at what they say will be 1 cent per kilowatt hour. Now that is cheap power!  http://www.ergenics.com/
