On a side note, why aren't governments providing rebates so people start putting solar panels everywhere?
Like, by now, considering we're facing major environmental catastrophe without seriously drastic action, wouldn't it just be wise to put panels almost everywhere there is at least sunshine for a decent part of the year.
Like what are we doing? ha
I'm trying to buy a block of land next door with a decent sized shed on it for this very reason. So we can cover the roof of the shed with panels. I'll be doing this out of my own pocket, and yes I'll get cheaper energy bills, but still, bit of a not to be doing it. ?

In most places they did. They worked. Now it's time to wind them down either legislate renters' rights to their roof space or start subsidizing other things like low environmental impact batteries or tidal.
I vaguely recall they did this in Australia and solar panel installers just increased the price by the government rebate anyway so it didn't actually make it cheaper.
