So, what are the issues here?

  • tariff on solar panels (economy? environment?)
  • washing machines (economy?)

What is your stance regarding solar energy? How do you see solar energy being achieved? Does it matter where the solar panels are coming from? Does it matter if energy is extracted from solar panels or coal or gas or oil?
