No, they don't use more energy to create that they produce. Hasn't that already been hashed to death on here yet? I know I've seen that discussion on a few other forums.
But from what I know, CitizenRE is part solar company, part pyramid scheme... sort of sketchy. As far as I know, they've never installed anything yet. Z On 3/12/07, Matt Wilson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi all, I have been lurking in the background for awhile, and admittedly, I don't usually read all the e-mails that are posted, but has anyone talked about "renting" solar? I bring it up because of all the talk about high electric bills. There is a company called Citizenre that will install solar panels on your house and then charge you your current utility bill's price per kilowatt hour. As far as I know, all you have to do it put down a $500.00 deposit that you get back with interest at the end of your contract. Here is their website: http://www.citizenre.com/web/index.php Has anyone done this? Is it a scam? It seems like a good option for folks that can't afford the upfront investment on panels... Then there is the whole "do these things use more energy to create than they ultimately produce?" stuff. I'm rather new to this area, and would like any ideas anyone has.
