And now for something completely different: actual useful information!

As a professional in the alternative energy business, part of my job is to keep informed on all the incentives available to help pay for the projects we do. While doing the rounds today, two things occurred to me:

1. There sure are alot of incentives available for residential projects.
2. I bet nobody knows about any of these.

Here's an example I sent to my sister today. College Station Utilities will give you up to $600 to purchase a more efficient air conditioning system for your house. Or, for any of my friends still living in New Jersey, PSE&G offers low interest loans to pay for 40-60% of a new behind-the-meter PV system. 

So here's my helpful tip for the day. Go to dsireusa.org and look for incentives available in your location to help you pay for solar power and energy efficiency, and get some of those America-ruining stimulus deficit communist dollars for youself.
