The movement toward solar power among homeowners isn't slowing down, and the commercial sector is following suit -- that includes storage.

ISS's own Amy Campbell (acampbell) blogs about the increasing solar talk within the industry. Also, ISS is dedicating an entire two-part seminar on solar and storage at the ISS World Expo, March 1-3, 2010, in Las Vegas. The discussion will be led by representatives from Baja Construction and iParkSolar.

Solar has been in the minds of storage operators for some time, so it's not a completely new concept. But is your opinion of the feasbility of solar changing? If so, how?
