NEW YORK, Nov. 16 /PRNewswire/ -- Solar energy is abundant and
infinitely renewable. Now, major corporations are doing their part
to help the environment by putting their unused rooftop space to
good use. (See video at:
http://media.medialink.com/WebNR.aspx?story=32691) Corporations
like Google, Staples, and General Motors are rolling out the latest
solar technology. In fact, the General Motors California facility
has the largest corporate design solar energy system in operation.
Their current installation generates only one megawatt. While solar
energy costs have dropped over 50 percent over the last 30 years,
prices still remain high for the average consumer. Yet, if you have
the biggest companies in the world putting solar technology on
their rooftops, that will drive up supply and demand of the
systems. In turn, this will bring down the costs -- making it
affordable for even the smallest of homeowners. Registered
