Now, obviously it'll be a while before we see those, but I'm hoping that in 20 years when my panels need to be replaced, I will have already replaced them with something much smaller and drastically more efficient like these.

April 2010 solar generation

Total on the meter is 4.73Mwh for a total of 1.07mwh I generated this month. Since I didn't use any more than I generated last month, and the meter has been rolling back slowly all month, I'm sure I generated much more than I used. This is awesome.
