St. Louis Beacon - Monetary gains make solar power a more practical choice: "Financial incentives from the federal government and local power companies make 2011 a good time for Missourians consider solar energy. The Missouri Clean Energy Initiative, passed overwhelmingly in 2008 as Proposition C, requires that 15 percent of the state's electrical power come from renewable sources by 2021.
Ahead of that deadline, Missouri's power companies are offering financial incentives to customers who help them meet that goal. Those incentives, added to the 30 percent federal tax credit, can reduce the initial cost of a solar installation by up to two-thirds, according to Erin Noble, of the Missouri Coalition for the Environment.
In addition, the cost of the solar panels has come down about 30 percent in the last three years."
