Already, nearly 500,000 homes in the United Kingdom have installed solar panels, the report from Imperial College said. As more homeowners turn to solar power for their energy needs, the cost of solar panels will continue to drop, according to the report. Costs have seen a major drop since 2000 and are expected to continue to fall through 2050. In Germany - a country that has taken advantage of its solar power potential - the cost of solar power is about 14 cents per kilowatt hour, not much more than the roughly 11 cents per kWh for coal power, The Guardian reported. pennenergy/articles/pennenergy/2014/01/uk-solar-power-potential-for-panels-on-10-million-homes.html
