[QUOTE="HB13DISH, post: 635136, member: 262829"] Thanks for the replies.:) All I am saying is, get rid of the existing solar water heating systems so that we can have a larger clear area on the roof top and then install a solar-electric generator that would use the whole area to generate more power. Alternatively, newly built buildings, should have these machines installed, and forbid the use of solar water heating systems. The stupid things are sitting on the roof tops doing nothing from sunrise till dawn, except when the tenants take their showers and only then they might start working again to heat the water or wait till next morning if the hot water is already fully consumed. With a solar-electric machine, it will be generating power and giving electricity to the grid between 8-12 hours a day, depending on the months. I can see a big flow in my suggestion and that is the tenants would not be easily convinced to chuck out their water heating systems as they would have to install an indoor one instead and participate in the cost of the solar-electric generator and pay more for the electricity. What I am after is, if there is already a solar-electric generator for apartment buildings and what is their maximum power and of course their cost. [/QUOTE]
