that is why corporate development will drive the cost down...billion dollar companies start outfitting their buildings with solar panelling -- it pays off for them, because they will likely be in the same office for 10 or even 20+ years....$15k to the home user, on the other hand...there is not much incentive. rebates and tax incentives can help kickstart any new paradigm shift.
I can tell you now, I won't buy it until its got a 2-3 year payback, instead or 10+ years currently before I would recoup my investment.
I also think there is a lot more efficiency that we can do, espceiclly in office space to reduce the need. like auto-dimming lights based on the amount of sunlight shining into through windows.
