In Cow Hampshire we have GT Solar they manufacture silicon for solar panels. In Massachusetts we have Evergreen Solar. The dollar is going to crash buy solar systems and get of the grid. In the NH we have this huge boondoggle coal plant in Bow. The costs of cleaning up this nightmare is skyrocketing. Ratepayers are being screwed on Seabrook and the Bow plant. If your off the grid these badly managed utilities are somebody else's skyrocketing bill.
