>Solar giant Qcells has started making solar cells at its Cartersville, Georgia, factory, and it’s on track to become the largest solar cell factory in US history by Q3 2026. The US has been heavily dependent on imported solar components for years, leaving developers exposed to tariff swings and supply chain disruptions. Qcells’ Cartersville is a direct bet against that. This isn’t just another factory; it’s the only place in the country where every major piece of a solar panel – from ingot to finished module – gets made under one roof. The module assembly side is already running at full capacity, turning out 16,700 panels a day.

To me solar is a boondoggle since it never amortizes without out federal subsidies.

But I think there are some places that solar does help augment the grid. But we still need on demand power.

Yes, In my current property I don't have solar and don't intend to install it. When I move I will put in a system (DIY) with battery and transfer switching. It would take about 5-6 years but I would "recoup" my costs. Maybe sooner since I can do almost all of the work myself.

Doing it yourself is the it cost return way.
