Abstract
This month’s main topic is something which often crops up when renewables such as PV are discussed: the consumer’s willingness-to-pay (WTP). But that isn’t all that came up when trawling the wires for PV news — we found news of PV-powered emergency cellphones along Highway 50 from the Tahoe Daily Tribune in Nevada,* a vineyard in Chester County, Pennsylvania generating power via 30 panels,** and a green parking lot in Little Rock, Arkansas with PV charging of hybrid/electric cars.*** However interesting these might be, they are not startling when compared to some of the other news reports.
