How Accessible is Solar Energy?
Students begin by using the Google Sunroof website to compare the cost/benefits of installing solar panels on a home's roof using different financial methods- buying, leasing and renting panels. After examining the affordability of panels, students also consider if solar panels are financially accessible to most citizens. Students are then introduced to the 'Solar Equity Gap', which claims that low income people, who could best benefit from lower energy bills, are the least likely to be able to afford them. Lastly they examine potential solutions to reduce the gap.
