Love it or hate it, the SolarCity story is a great example of American business success. Great idea, lots of barriers, hurdles and pain helped by visionaries and forward thinking investors. Fast forward less than 10 years and the ideas have burgeoned into the residential solar industry we have today with multiple Billion dollar companies. I didn’t see it then but I am happy that residential solar entrepreneurs are getting the publicity now.
