Just read this article which talks about the stimulus package and how it will revolutionize solar energy application, innovation and growth.

The article mentions that $80 billion dollars is earmarked for solar energy projects, including 6 billion for loan guarantees and a few billion more for other renewable energy ideas.

In 2009 and 2010 solar energy usage is going to explode and the best part is all the jobs that are going to be created. Not too mention the savings to be gained by homeowners, green builders, solar tech companies, investors and renewable energy service businesses. Don’t forget about the investment opportunities that will come out of this as well. Green tech investing is super hot.

I believe that we are going to see major innovation in the coming year (and next) of all sorts related to solar implementation. From cool solar gadgets to better faster and easier solar installs. People who have wanted to try solar energy in their homes, cars, work, etc will now be able to buy and or install it with the help of grants, loans and other government aid.

The big drivers of change are going to be small companies who receive the federal and or state aid, as these small businesses are the ones who are going to create affordable consumer solar power devices and services.

The solar energy revolution has begun. Are you ready?
